Re: freezing upon hardware installation
First of all it would be helpful if you would list your hardware configuration.

Re: freezing upon hardware installation
I wonder if a port is shorted upon inserting the connector? does each and every USB port do this? I'd also unplug everything and plug in one device at a time.
