Just cobbled together, (with TLC), an old MS-7069 VER : 1 "Callisto"
motherboard (from an old Packard Bell i-meda machine), XP Home SP3+ now in
it. 4x512mb ddr400 Skt.775 or was it 478 ? ....2a.m.!! 2.8ghz
....and the last thing I did was installed a 4 port + 2 internal PCI USB
card, which seems to be crawling along at USB 1.1 speed - perhaps even
slower. (used same cards in other machines and they're fine.
After Ghost 14.0'ing my endeavours out to my ext. USB hd, which I failed to
notice tok about 14 minutes ! I discovered that when trying to burn those
approx. 5gb's of Ghost 14.0 backup files from ext. hd to dvd-r, that Nero 7
threatened to take half an hour or more !
Plugged ext. USB hd into one of the ATX USB 2.0 ports and all is fine, Ghost
14.0 bu files burnt to 2 x dvd-r's in just a few minutes.
In case it's relevant, XP platform has been "repair installed" after
swapping out motherboard. Old mobo had an ALI chipset on it - and I notice
on the USB tree in Device Manager that there are three "ALI PCI to USB Open
Host Controller" entries, ...deleted them and they came back !
In case it's relevant:-
SB PC1512 card in PCI slot nearest cpu (onboard Realtek chip switched off in
bios).
4 port USB card is in the other PCI slot
2 Case front USB ports connected to one of two yellow shrouded USB
pin-headers on motherboard.
3 1/2" Card reader connected to the other yellow shrouded USB pin-header on
motherboard.
IDE LiteOn cd r/w (jumpered as master), on same 80 core ribbon as 20gb
Maxtor STM3160215A hd ...off to the lone IDE port.
LG dvd-rewriter connected to SATA port 1 (which I had to reflash to stop a
flock of Bluebirds installing themselves - what a liberty !
http://www.lge.com/us/support/product/support-product-profile.jsp?customerModelCode=GH22NS50#
....I have the correct Chipset / LAN and Intel graphics drivers installed and
all is quite robust but, I'm stumped over this PCI USB card on a go-slow.
....any tips appreciated.
TIA
regards, Richard
