I didn't mean to imply that this was the source of your problem; I only intended to point out that your reasoning about relative speeds was illogical. > > You can try using the patch in this message: > > Thanks, but it made no difference.

If that weren't so you'd be getting error messages about "Device not accepting address" instead. > The additional diags I mention above are attached.
