USB interference problems

Hello,

I have 2 USB games devices that hang or disconnect when my air conditioner, desk lamp and other devices turn on or off.
I found this is caused by air interference that some home devices cause, maybe RFI, I tried the same USB devices in another 4 computers and same thing...my electric installation is ok, with earth, UPS, etc...I tested in other houses too, same problem.
I think these USB devices are so sensible for the interference, because I have other USB devices that don't disconnect by the interference.
I tried all USB ports, powered HUB, PCI USB card, and no luck.

Any idea ???

Thanks,
Ulisses

well i guess some sort of shielding for your usb devices.... maybe open the cases of the devices and attach something to the inside to shield electrics
