I'm not sure if your "docking station thing" is a USB hub (device that allows you to plug multiple USB devices in while only using a single USB port), but I never had any luck with maintaining a fast, reliable connection using them with multiple devices plugged in because the USB bandwidth and voltage per port is limited.
I would recommend that for any USB device that requires stability, you plug that device directly into its own port on the PC.

thanks for the advice, earlier i put the USB device directly into a usb slot at the front of my computer about a minute later the screen went blue and this giant message came up i didn't have time to read it all but it said something about performing an emergency shut down. Next thing i know my computers restarting but after it restarted itself everything seems to be working.
go figure. lol
