I agree with this. I found a similar camera locking up on an old computer of mine and it only worked if I turned the USB trafic down to the minimum.

ZWO have acknowledged that there is a problem with the ASI120MM USB2 camera being connected via a USB3 port
They created a flash firmware upgrade for this camera but I’m not bothering with this bandaid workaround
I went and bought a ASI 120MM-S USB3 camera and problem now totally fixed, connects first time , time after time . Got a good deal from Bintel , and yes they are aware of this issue too.

Thanks to all for the advice , suggestions and good feedback

Might be a clear night tonight in Sydney so eager to get some good guiding with my new guide camera

Thanks again
Cheers

Set up last night and used the new ZWO ASI130MM-S USB3 guide camera
It worked perfectly all night ( 4 hours ) and focusing was so easy
I don’t know how I put up with other camera for 3 or 4 months
I hope this post helps others
Cheers
