most USB ports on laptops won't power a device that draws too much current. I
know mine wouldn't power an older external hard drive, and would kick off while
charging my PDA device.</font></span></div>

Troubleshooting a DDR Pad?<br></font><br></div><div><div></div><div class="h5">
<div></div>I'm using the Kiky X-Series. There are user reports are a mixed bag,
but all say that they worked with dance pads, even lighted ones. It works fine
with a regular PS2 pad.<br><br>To test, I've connected the pad to my adapter,
and then straight into a USB port on my laptop, with no other USB devices
plugged in. I've used junXion and ControllerMate, both of which will simply
display the data being sent by any HID device. Again, the data all shows up as
expected with a PS2 pad, not with the dance pad.<br><br>Another thought I've had
is to cannibalize a USB joystick or gamepad and use its brain instead of the
current one (which would also give me a straight-up USB output instead of
needing the adapter).<br><br>Thanks for all the suggestions! </div></div></div>
