I would open the Lego tower control panel applet and see what it has to say
about your tower. Also, I would try using NQC directly to see if it behaves any
differently with respect to the USB tower. It sounds like a software problem
with the tower drivers, but it is hard to say for sure. My XP laptop (USB 1.1)
and XP desktop (same) don't have any problems with the USB tower. Do you have
any hardware-specific software installed and running (i.e., utilities of any
sort that come pre-installed by the manufacturer)?
