A couple things I noticed. My Mbox needs to be installed on 1 USB port
and I need to use it on that port. If I started messing around with
plugging it into different USB ports and trying to reinstall on
multiple ports, inconsistent results occured.

I've found that to be the case with many (maybe all) USB devices. I
have a scanner, flash card reader, Jukebox 3 and portable disk drive
that I plug in as needed. The scanner (the oldest one of the devices)
seems to be happy plugged into either port, but if I plug the other
devices into the "wrong" port, sometimes Windows tries to re-install
the device. This doesn't seem to do any harm, but life shouldn't be
like that.

It's enough to make a Unix user out of me (but I'm not sure I have
that long to live).
