| 500622 | 2006-11-20 05:02:00 | My web camera has stopped working saying it is out of bandwidth. It is connected by USB and I wondered if I added another USB card to my computer would this cure the problem or does the computer allocate a certain bandwidth for USB and adding more USB outlets will not increase it. Can I increase the allocated bandwidth by making adjustments to the computer? Regards, Mervselm |

| 500623 | 2006-11-20 05:46:00 | How many USB ports have you got?? And how many USB devices have you got plugged in? Are any USB devices running on normal power as well? A USB device / port only supplies up to 500ma, on each USB port. Any higher, you may have probs. |

Another USB card would help, but usually best performance for video camera transfer is obtained using a "firewire" 1384 connection, if the camera and computer support it. The problem is not usually from excessive power consumption as suggested above, that has a different error message. |
