Iphone causes computer to freeze while on dock.

Hey guys, I just opened up my iphone today and it's great. However, my iphone causes my computer to freeze. I'm using the universal dock and the oem usb cable to connect to my computer (USB 2.0). While plugged in the iphone charges and shows the screen with battery indicator. However, after a while my iphone's wallpaper comes up and freezes my computer (have to restart computer). My iphone is still fully functional though.

So here's what I tried so far that didn't work:

1. Reinstalling itunes (latest).
2. Reinstalling USB 2.0 drivers for my motherboard.
3. Powercycling iphone.
4. Restarting computer.
5. Switching USB ports.
6. Turning off auto-lock.

I built my computer myself and some of the specs are:

AMD64 3200
Asus K8V Deluxe
2GB ram
Windows XP Pro SP2 (Fresh Install)

Do you have any Logitech Software installed. Mainly Web Cam or Video Cam software made by Logitech?

If so either Update this software or Uninstall it and see what happens.

If this does not apply let us know.

No I'm not running any Logitech software. I just came home from filming and I changed USB 2.0 settings in bios to High speed 480MBps. I'll let you guys know how that goes down. If it still freezes, I'll try another partition (windows XP) and I'll also install vista on another partition to see how it is. For now, it does not freeze on my macbook pro, but I want it connected to my desktop.

Okay so I have tried and it still freezes:

- Changing USB ports to high speed 480MBps in bios
- Changing USB cables
- Using it without the universal dock
- Used a seperate partition (another windows xp system partition)

None of these resolved my issues so far. Right now I have it hooked up to my macbook pro and I'm monitoring how it's going. Anyone has had similar experiences with this? Tomorrow I'm going to try to plug in my brother's ipod just to see if it freezes also.

I connected an ipod nano to my computer and that didn't freeze. Right now I'm going to test the iphone connection on a boot camp windows xp partition on my macbook pro.
