Hi there,
For several days, when I start my tablet connected to the docking station, the first minutes pass and then suddenly a message appears: "USB device not recognized (the last USB device you connected to this computer has malfunctioned and Windows don't recognize it."
A few seconds after this message, the WiFi is disconnected and the screen remains frozen. The docking station keeps connecting and disconnecting without me being able to do anything.
Any idea on this issue?
Thank you !
KM
