I do not have another num pad to try in it. I failed to mention and I apologize earlier that this occurs in the other two USB ports as well when using this num pad. I have not had issues with the external hard drive in any of the ports. Thanks for your suggestions. I guess I am going to have to try and locate the number for Lenovo to see about purchasing another one. since I am sending this message is there any other external num pad that works as well as Lenovo with Jaws?

Josh,

Two thoughts. Can you use another port? Also, if not using
the external num pad does any other device work ok in that
port? Finally, do you have another num pad to try, possible
there is something shorting out inside of it?

PROBLEMS


hello all,
I am having a serious problem with my external number pad on
my Dell
Inspiron 1545. The problem is when I connect the external
number pad it will
connect and unconnect at will. If I move the number pad even
slightly it
will unconnect. After several times of doing this it will
give me a message
that one of the devices connected to my computer has
malfunctioned and to
click that message. I have clicked that message once and it
said to press a
reset button or the hub will basically be rendered useless.
I check the
connection at the USB port and it is always firmly connected
to the computer
when this occurs. The external number pad is a lenovo number
pad can anyone
assist me on this issue. My thoughts is a loose connection
inside the USB
cord but I do not know for sure. Thanks for any help
offered.
