Well, before I give up I have to rule out the possibility that I may just be using a crappy USB hub, so I just ordered a powered USB 3.0 hub. My machine only has USB 2.0 but this hub that I just...

Interesting - okay, I'm going to give that a go today. I'll try it first by unplugging all of my connected USB devices and see where that gets me.

Glutton for punishment

Figured I'd try making this work again, today. No luck, more wasted time.

So.... you're saying that the problem went away simply by switching from a DVI to a VGA cable?

Could you be more specific, please? What is your setup? OS?

Does Mountain Lion work okay?

Based on everything I've read, versions of Mountain Lion, 10.8.5 and above, seem to be working fine.
