Woot, double posted bump!

I've fixed it. The issue was the length of USB cable I was using, it appears that this old PC cannot manage powering a cable over that distance through the PCI bus, where as my mum's old (2003-4) laptop could, as can the modern stuff in my house.

I read somewhere the maximum cable length was 5M, this was about 4.


Renguard is a wonderful initiative
