Subject: [tech-geeks] Smartboard needs to be unplugged to start PC?

I have a few of these now (Smartboard 60's) and myself (and staff) have noticed 
the PC (Clone based Media PC) will not start if the unit is plugged in.  Only 
starts the post and will stay (without error) doing nothing unless the USB 
cable is unplugged to the Smartboard.  Once it hits starting windows your fine 
to plug it in, and all is well.

I tried a powered usb hub, but not only did it NOT work, the hub got hot enough 
to melt the sticker inside its plastic case?

Anyone have this, and/or a fix?
