I have some of them set to "Disable" but they still work with the default settings. There's two under my thumb that do the "forward" and "back" functions in internet browsers and I constantly lose posts from clicking them by accident.

I don't plug them directly into the TV, but I believe your problem is power related, as my drives are very particular about what USB port they are plugged into. My case has the USB ports on the front. They are doubled up USB 2 ports, so I get four ports connected to two USB headers on the motherboard. If I plug my drives into the same bank of USB ports I get clicking, and the computer will fail to recognise them. However, if I plug them in, one into each USB deck, they will work. For some reason the bottom port on the USB decks are the only ports I get good transfer speeds. Also, if I charge my phone on my PC over USB whilst one drive is plugged in it can cause the drive to click and not respond. I guess USB 2 was never designed to power portable hard drives. If any of this makes sense, I would advise you to experiment with all the available USB ports on your TV, and try plugging out unnecessary hardware.

Serephucus wrote: » Should be getting decent speeds with that. Maybe look into a TP Link one. Most of theirs come with antennas. The only I'm using on the family's PC has one, and that's getting ~40Mb at 30 feet, through a bunch of walls. It's worth mentioning though that the Horizon box in general has horrible WiFi capability.

Soon we will be paying for high end GPUs 2k EU... I happy that and doing well now, but it does not help to drop prices for us. Hopefully there will be something worth picking up late march/early April for my birthday.

I know this is PC building, but I'm active on here, so I'll put this here amongst the brain trust! My girlfriends laptop craps out when streaming. YouTube, netflix, BBC, you name it! Just goes as slow as all hell and craps out. I've pinged YouTube with CMD and no issues, she has bitdefender on there, and has no issues with viruses, malware etc. I've cleared caches, temp files, updated drivers etc, but nothing! Silverlight and Java, same problem. laptop is on Win 7 Home premium and is only 3 years old. Ideas anyone?
