I have removed from my Choices.Boot.Predesk the following items: LoadUSB2 - my previous purchased copy of USB2 Interim - some old files supplied at various software updates Start the scanner and wait until the light is steady and plug it in to the Front Bottom USB socket. It is recognised in USBInfo and I can use the scanner. Reboot the Iyonix and re-insert the scanner into the Front Top USB port. It is not recognised in USBInfo. Use USBKick and it now appears but on trying to scan I get a USB I/O transfer failure. Reboot the Iyonix and then plug in my external USB2 hub with Card reader attached into the Front Top USB socket. The Hub is recognised in USBInfo but no Card reader appears. Using USBKick establishes the Card reader. Plug the scanner into one of the ports on the external USB hub and it appears in USBInfo and I can scan. Reboot the Iyonix. Insert external USB hub into Front Bottom socket and HIB and Card reader appear. All the above seem to be consistant results on trying it at least 3 times per scenario. From the above it seems that there is something strange going on with the Front Top USB port.
