Solved random Blue Screen crashes

Question

My 1505 laptop has experienced random 'Blue Screen' crashes on average every 15 minutes. To make a long story short, I removed a 6 foot USB cable extension connected to my digital camera cable ( my laptop is used in a photo studio). System is now stable. The same camera and USB cable extension worked fine on my old desktop PC. Apparently the added capacitance of a longer cable can't be tolerated by all PC's. Ed
