Hi Dave, I have several USB hubs that I never touched for years. I thought I never need it until now, just bought some other devices and I thought that it's nice at I don't have to stand up to switch cable everytime I need anything. So I hook up the USB hub. The comp didn't see any device I hook to the hub. Switched to another hub, same thing. Switch to another one, another one hooked in, I can the HD. I can get on it but for only several seconds, it disappeared.

Is this because the hub is being older version? Does version matter? I know the comp has USB version 2.0 I just want to confirm with you before I buy another hub, hate to have to make multiple trips to Frys.
