hi,

Over the course of several weeks I've been having hangs when Vista starts up. On the BIOs screen, during

the loading of the OS and on the desk top. It will hang in excess of 5 minutes at all three of these locations.

The problem moves around. Also I've had problems installing a hard drive. All of these are USB related. The

hard drive would not install with two USBs in the PC. The hangs are associated with a document text in the

PNY 4GB attache Ready Boost USB I have permanently installed in my system. The document has been

deleted. I have removed the second USB. The system is booting again correctly but I believe this is short

term and will return. Anyone have anything on this? Looks like a driver problem in the OS to me. Might be a

hub problem or something related.
