That's what I meant by you can wait an hour and if it ain't going to talk it ain't gonna. We boot up the Dirvers Station first then the robot. Then we all watch the three little green lights on the gaming adapter like we are watching lottery numbers being drawn on TV. Then after a minute or two we try unplugging the power connector on the gaming adapter and replugging it in. If by the third time that doesn't work we just turn the whole robot off, count to 10, turn it back on and start the whole process over. I suspect either something is wrong with the power distribution board or the gaming adapter but I not sure which. The power distribution board is $190 and the gaming adapter is $100 (at our closest Best Buy). Anyone have an educated guess as to which one to try first? At least noone has come back and said that this is normal so I guess we have a problem somewhere.
