If using a USB hub, try connecting without using the hub (some hubs are
not powered and may not work with the AV300).

The USB driver software on your computer may be out of date. Find your
USB chipset type by going to My Computer > Properties > Device Driver
> Universal Serial Bus (USB) Controllers > Host Controller. You may have

the latest software drivers for these chipsets. For VIA updates, check out

the driver and reinstall the Windows default USB controller drivers.
