USB Charging stopped

[Mickeyasr]

I've been sync'ing and charging my TP2 via a USB cable for about a year now. Yesterday, all of a sudden, I got a message on the phone's screen: "The charging current is not enough for the device power consumption. Please shut down unused applications, or switch to AC adapter." Another issue that started at the same time is that the Windows Mobile Device Center will not show the phone as connected.

I did a complete shutdown/restart of both the phone and laptop (which is running on AC power). Unfortunately, that doesn't solve either problem.

Since I haven't changed my ROM in a couple of weeks, is it possible that either a windows update or some update push from my LAN team changed a setting?

Any ideas on how to fix this?
