Rick,

Any suggestion is appreciated.  I wondered about McAfee also and I'll look into 
it, but in our case we don't have ePO and I'm pretty sure we have the same 
McAfee on the same WP's in many other locations in our facility.

Thanks,  

Roger Smith

Roger,
This may be a bit of a longshot, but I've had some issues in the past with 
McAfee blocking USB ports.  I'm not on-site right now, but take a look at the 
DLP policies if you are using ePO.
Take a look at McAfee KB86007

Tony,

These don't have extenders or hubs, direct to the USB ports in the back of the 
WP.  It happened using both the regular and high-speed ports.  One of them has 
a USB isolator and it also experienced the problem.  In the past it was rare to 
have to push/pull one, it happens sometimes on stations with a Remote Graphics 
Unit.

Thanks,  

Roger Smith

Roger,
Our control rooms use the trackballs and we have not had issues with them.
On a rare occasion we will have to push/pull the USB and it works again, but 
this is not very often. We do tend to buy new ones with computer upgrades every 
3-4 years. Is it directly to the machine or is through the USB extender with 
the hub? We have more often had to either push/pull the 
keyboard/mouse/trackball or pull power from the hub and re-power. 

Thanks,
Tony

________________________________

Hello List,
Yesterday during a startup from an outage, we had an experience where an 
operator was operating from 3 different Workstations (Win 7, I/A 9.1, FV 10.4). 
 Several times on each WP the Foxboro approved trackball would stop moving the 
mouse pointer.  Push/pull of the USB plug would get it started again.  There 
was very high usage of the WP's at the time.  Just wondering if anyone else has 
seen something like this?

Thanks,

Roger Smith
