Black screen

Cause:
Possible USB Port or Hub is USB 1.1 not 2.0

Solution:
- Reduce the resolution to the lowest setting by going to: “setting” > “resolution”
- Use Low resolution 640×480
- Upgrade to USB 2.0 controller
- If connect to Hub or external cable USB 1.1, upgrade to USB 2.0
*Check if it is USB 2.0 by: “start” > right click “My Computer” > select “properties” >
“hardware” tab > then “device manager” > expand “Universal serial Bus controllers” >
if the word “enhanced” is there, then it is using USB 2.0. *Check if it is USB 2.0 when
inserting USB, a notification on the bottom right will say that the device can perform better with USB 2.0
