Hello,
I have a MacBook 2,1 (Intel Core 2 Duo, 2.16 GHz) which I use with a keyboard, a mouse attached to the keyboard and a rather ancient and VDU ( Mitsubishi Diamond Pro 900u).
Over the past few days I have had several notices saying the a 'USB device is drawing too much power.' My keyboard and mouse get disconnected as a result and I am now using my Macbook's keyboard in conjunction with my VDU. Not ideal as this is my main machine.
I have restarted my machine and unplugged the cable connecting it to my printer.
I read a post suggesting resetting the power management unit but the instructions were for a G5. Does anyone know
1) if resetting the PMU will sort the issue
2) how to reset the PMU on a macbook
3) what else I should do to get rid of the message
4) whether an Apple wireless keyboard and mouse or magic trackpad would be a good solution given the problem?
Thank you
Steph
