The Julia Roberts look a like dolls?
Or, the inflatable dead mouse ones with optional trap restraint for that perfect recreation of ambience?
Or, the wombat with optional waterwings? Or the Tweety with optional wombat?
Or, the deluxe Looks Like A Pair Of Squashed Bugs During Mating ® model?
Or, the inflatable dog with man's face arse?

Well, disconnected all USB devices, except for the USB mouse which is connected via the PS/2 instead with an adapter, and rebooted. Reran Sandra, and I still get the result that 4 of the hubs/ports/controllers/whatever are listed as USB 1.1 and two of the as USB 2.0. As described in my earlier posts.
Let's see what Microsoft's little shit has to say.
USB device reviewer, returning these entries in order:
1.) Intel ? 82801EB USB Universal Host Controller - 24D2
DriverKey: {36FC9E60-C465-11CF-8056-444553540000}\0000
VendorID: 8086
DeviceID: 24D2
SubSysID: 425A8086
Revision: 02
Root Hub
Hub Power: Self Power
Number of Ports: 2
Power switching: None
Compound device: No
Over-current Protection: Individual
Port 1
Port 2
Relatively the same (Different DriverKey location, e.g. 0001, different DeviceID's, etc., but, that's expected) for the remaining 3 listed USB controllers:
2.) 24D4
3.) 24D7
4.) 24DE
Then, we get to the USB 2 controller
5.) Intel ? 82801EB USB2 Enhanced Host Controller - 24DD
DriverKey: {36FC9E60-C465-11CF-8056-444553540000}\0003
VendorID: 8086
DeviceID: 24DD
SubSysID: 425A8086
Revision: 02
DebugPort: 1
Root Hub: USB#ROOT_HUB20#4&3820b9ae&3#{f18a0e88-c30c-11d0-8815-00a0c906bed8}
Hub Power: Self Power
Number of Ports: 8
Power switching: Ganged
Compound device: No
Over-current Protection: Global
Ports 1 through 8
05.) USB Controller/Hub - Intel ? 82801EB USB Universal Host Controller - 24DE
Okay... the 8 ports make sense, as I have 8 ports total. I forgot two of them.
This setup is SO idiotic! 
6 in the back, but only they're divded into 4 in one group, and 2 in another. Then, the extra two in the front. FUCKERS! 
So, I'm going to ask something. 
Wasn't there something about how USB controllers are listed that has like multiple entries in it? For instance, take the above example. There are 5 separate entries. One is an apparent "master" entry, the last list, because it has the 8 ports on it. So, what's throwing me off is why then are there 4 separate entries of 2 each? I would be more likely to accept any of this if it made sense.
e.g. One controller would have 4, and 2 would have 2. But, I guess it doesn't work that way? Each "controller" can only have 2 ports max, is that it? Thus, for the third and 4th, a separate "controller" must be installed? Followed by a 3rd controller for the 5th and 6th, etc.? And, why are each of the separate ports in the first 4 controllers listed as USB 1.1 but the main USB 2 controller lists as USB 2? Is it for backwards compatibility with USB 1.1?
BTW, just in case it needed to be said, since I didn't, this was still with no devices connected up, save as noted about the PS/2 USB mouse. And, now, of course, I discover I had FORGOTTEN the pair at the bottom in the back.
So, two USB 1.x devices were still connected at the time these tests were run, and, I had forgotten. A parallel to USB printer adapter and a USB Microsoft Sidewinder game controller.Oh, and I see that Sandra had listed 8 channels on the USB 2 controller. So, it's starting to make some sense, it seems.

A year later, the court tries to recover transcripts of the case, but, the backup DVD is unreadable. It is discovered the disc used was a CMC!

db, are you STILL going on about this?!?! lol
I'll still be on it until God gets off my ass and stops with the conflicting results.
Or I can get some straight answers. Or someone does me a favor and 
Never put anything past the fuckers.Either it's USB 2.0 or it's notHere's another handy little tool for examining USB controllers/portshttp://www.microsoft.com/whdc/device/strea...ap/UVCview.mspx
Okay, I'll see what THIS has to say.
Thanks! -
db, your motherboard has all usb2 ports
I am starting to think that, maybe, I had run Sandra when the devices and 1.x USB hubs were attached to the back ports at the time. And, that's why they were returning 1.x. YET... if that was the case, WHY weren't there FOUR USB 2.0 ports detected instead of 2? The two free front ones AND the two that had the two USB 2.0 drives connected up to them?
-
Now, one thing that still bugs me, though. Okay, if as Sandra is returning... and NO ONE has verified for me yet
that I have 4 USB 1.1 ports, the ones in the back, and 2 USB 2.0 ports, in the front... WHY am I getting apparent USB 2.0 speeds in ALL 6 ports? i.e getting the same speeds in all ports? IF that were the case, then, it would have to be that the two USB 2.0 ports were running at the USB 1.1 speed, wouldn't it? -
Anyone getting over 20MB/s sustained transfer from usb2 please post results.
How do you want these results? From what application? From what field?
It does matter because, as I've said no one is consistent. So, one result from somewhere may not be what someone else is looking for. -
Sorry to be picky, but......
Be picky all you like, because, in the end, the notation of the units, etc. doesn't matter a flying fuck.
The manufacturers NEVER stick to anything consistent. They never explain if they're using megabyte, megabit, or mebibyte. They often times use all captial letters as a shouting advertising technique, so, it doesn't matter. -
Something I had noticed for a while and I believe it is the case. Can anyone verify it or shoot it down?
There is no such thing as 12x CD-RW. Everything I've seen advertised as 12x CD-RW has never written greater than 10x. These 12x CD-RW's have always had a maximum rated speed write descriptor of 10x. In both the Sony DRU-700a and the NEC 3500a.
Now, could it be the age of these two drives? The newer NEC is 2 years old now, I think. Anyway, has anyone every gotten 12x on a "12x" CD-RW? And, if so, how old is the drive used? Thanks!

I was wondering, going a bit off topic. Is there something that can create MDS/MDF from an existing ISO or other image AND still write images to non NTFS partitions? i.e. create split images in that format when the image goes over 4 GB. UltraISO will, but, only with that klunky all but arbitrary .IBZ, I think it was, format. Thanks!

Moved post to where it belongs.

Except for apothecary tables. They were quite the item a few years back.
Still, apothecary table is a bit more modern than materia medica table.

No Kev. A CMC gun doesn't shoot blanks. It just doesn't do the job properly.A CMC gun would be a Triffid gun.
Actually, CMC discs might make pretty good ammunition for a disc firing gun. -

I'd forgotten David Tennant had already been in Doctor Who before!

Maybe the shuttle is larger on the inside than it is the outside?
The Daleks did have that technology in The Chase.Ha! Never thought of that!
It seemed pretty small though when the Dr and the gang were in there though.What I always thought was most interesting. WHY is there a human sized entry hole in the top of the shuttle?
I could understand one Dalek sized, since the Dalek that operates the shuttle is apparently attached to the controls, like in the Absolam Daak stories from the magazine strips. That way, an operator would be inserted or removed and then automatically connected. So, why is there that equally human sized elevator shaft behind the control Dalek? IF there was an elevator for a Dalek to come up, then, why didn't the Doctor bring it up? The answer is probably the budget. -
No did a reformat instead.......Ok will do it over the weekend mate.
Well, DID you?
STILL formatting?

As for the term chemist, at least apothecary has fallen out of fashion.

Wait, wasn't there like a big terrorist arrest there recently, too? And a war somewhere over there in Israel?

Why anyone would pay to have a low level driver sitting permanently there, changing your data without your knowledge, is totally beyond me.
Exactly. If you're going to use it, best to turn AutoStart or whatever that option is to load on Windows start and set it to off.

Sorry, don't have the image file anymore. I could try to image the disc and then try to burn that new image to a DVD+RW and see.
Cigarettes, spiders and RPJ TV's oh my!

I have a similar story. Over 5 years ago, I had a VCR where a spider crawled between the covering over the LED section depicting the clock. Of course, it couldn't get out and died in there. So, the clock was forever obscured. There was no sensible way to get the cover off. And, since the remote control sensor was also conveniently placed under the same cover, it would be obvious if I forced the cover off, the remote control would stop working.
Also, the biggest scare I ever got in my life. When I learned spiders had 8 eyes.
Around 1985, a Transformer called Perceptor was released. He was billed as a "real working microsope" although his lenses were closer to just magnifying glass level. One day, I found a dead spider on the floor and decided to give it a close up look under Perceptor. I slid the thing around and got THE shock of my life up to that point! :& 8 goddamn eyes! 
So, I looked up spiders in a book from the public library after that and discovered, yeah, they do.
