So my followup question is:
will using this prevent the Iyonix from locking up when the device is
inserted?
Failing to work with a device is acceptable, requiring a total reset
isn't. In effect it means I have to restrict myself to using unknown
pen devices on Windows or the RPC, where the failure is
non-catastrophic, and allows me to get at the information about the
device.
As I said, one of these devices, the VTec, works on the RPC - I used
it there tonight, yet the Iyonix freezes up when it is inserted.
