Device is Connected Message
Posted by RTMooney on January 17th, 2006


I am running WIN XP Pro on a Dell 4550. Several times per day, I get a
dialog box pops onto my screen saying "The Device is Connected on Channel 1"
My only option is to click "OK" and I am unable to do anything else until I
close the box. There is no information in the top bar of the box and
sometimes it's a couple times per day--other times it's several times per
hour. Haven't discerned a pattern. Nothing fancy attached, pretty much a
plain vanilla network workstation.

Anyone have any suggestions? Thanks in advance.
