Itunes Problems

[rdcliffe287]

I have a new Ipad 64K, and run Windows 7 on my desktop. Syncing, etc., all worked fine to start with, but Itunes is now not recognising the Ipad when I connect it via the USB port (directly into the PC, not via a multi-USB external port). Also, almost immediately after firing up Itunes, with the Ipad connected, my broadband connection is trashed, and I can only restore it by rebooting the PC.

I've tried uninstalling / reinstalling Itunes, and rebooting the ipad, but to no avail.

Any suggestions most welcome, but please don't tell me to ditch the Windows PC and get an Apple!

Thanks.
