I'm also using an iMAC but running Parallels 5.0 I am experiencing a gradual slowdown of received data to the point it stops after about 5 mins. I must then disco and re-con the USB cable, then it works all over again for another 5 mins....do you experience this?

hi n3hev.
dont have any problems with it slowing down over time,keep it running for hours at a time and have never had to unplug the usb cable, its only when first started,also when looking on the overhead view the image seems blurred

Hmmm, I don't have any start up troubles....yet :O I am not getting anywhere with tech support....I tried re-installing the software, driver, using a different USB cable (even using the original in another un-related application and it worked there). I can't find any reason for the data flow to slow, then stop. If I read about the LED's and their meanings, it appears that the computer stops communicating via the driver after a period of time(the USB LED blinks once per second, then gets slower and slower, then stops altogether). I check my process ID's and RB is still running, I just don't know what happened to the driver! Frustrating....when it works, it's great though.....anyone have ANY ideas??
