If a device is hot-plugged does it mean that it is hot-swappable?

i didn't quite get your point man, but i think you mean that if it could be connected to another device simultaneously?! well then, you are hot right there!

As long as the computer is not reading or writing to the jump drive, plugging and unplugging should not affect it.

Sure when you programm hardware drivers or program who uses the interface to any device driver. Anything is possible, it's digital... zero or one. When it won't work this way, there is another.\n\nhttp://www.programmersheaven.com/zone7/index.htm

No duh. That shouldn't be a surprise.\nIn hibernate mode, the computer is practically off.\nIn standby mode, its on, but only by a small thread.\nGive your computer a minute or so to restore the connection.

you may want to try plugging it into a different USB port. or If it is not powered by the port, make sure the outlet its plugged into is working

If you install the programm. There is a default port which you can change if you want.

In theory, it could damage your computer if it got too hot.  But it's not uncommon for a laptop that is charging to get very warm.   I've owned three Dells that could melt your lap and they've worked just fine.   \n\nUsually there is a fan that will kick in if it gets too hot.

Its not possible.  One of the most important aspects of a computer is called the BIOS (the Basic Input Output System).  All the hardware settings such as the system clock, device settings, boot sequence, etc. are stored there. The first thing that happens when you switch on your computer is called the POST (Power on Self Test).  During POST, the BIOS determines whether all the computer hardware runs correctly or not.  If there are some hardware issues, the computer may not boot into Windows at all (e.g. for a faulty hard drive).  This lets you know whether you have any hardware issues.\n\nIf you eliminate POST, the system has no way of determining the hardware status.  The BIOS is more close to hardware than an OS such as Windows.  \n\nPerhaps for your idea to work, it might be required to change today's computer architectures.

Yes it will still work, just at the USB 1.0 standard speed.  You might get a popup when you plug it in that says something like "You have plugged a high speed device into a non-high speed port."  No worries though, everything will work fine.

That'll most often happen under Windows 2000 and earlier. Windows also will try to index the files on any media too causing a delay. Most USB keys have a light on them. As long as that light isn't blinking just pull the key out. Blinking indicates read/write activity and you could lose data pulling it when it's blinking. If you get an error telling you the device was removed tell Windows that you're a big person and you can handle things by yourself.

This does nto seem to make much sense unless the battery is so old that even at a full charge it does not have enough battery power to run all of the necessary parts of your laptop. You can try this. go into: START, CONTROL PANEL, POWER OPTIONS, under POWER SCHEMES you can pick PORTABLE LAPTOP, then you can check the options below of how you want the laptop to run while plugged in to AC and how to run plugged in to BATTERY POWER.  Hope this helps...\n\nIf neither of these situations fixes your issues, then you may need to go into your SYSTEM Properties and check out to make sure all your devices are performing okay..
