I have a 5 port usb and firewire card in my B&W and today, I tried to add an external 4-port D-Link USB hub. My B&W had kniptions. Everytime I plugged something in I would get a dialogue box saying that a device attached to the usb port was drawing too much power. I had the d-link plugged in with the adapter that came with it. Using OS X 10.35, 512K memory. Tried plugging the hub into both the card and the stock usb ports. Same thing happened.
Any ideas?

Is the hub powered? If not, you may have to spring for one with an ac adapter.
I bought a cheap one at Comp USA quite a while back and it works well.
