Maximus-Decim Native USB Drivers


Recommended Posts

CnMemory is actually just a distributor, not a manufacturer, but I do not know, which manufacturer hides behind "VID_1516" and even Google did not help in that matter. These sticks are offered with different capacities (512MB, 1GB, 2GB and 4GB) and the entries above are, of course, only applicable to the 1GB stick (the others will need different PID numbers).

About the id of the stick chip, see this post of mine:

http://www.911cd.net/forums//index.php?showtopic=18804

It seems like the manufacturer is:

http://www.skymedi.com.tw/eng-index.html

http://www.skymedi.com.tw/products/sk6201.htm

and that the same stick is sold as GXT at

http://www.valgear.com

@jaclaz

Thanks for this! Anyway, it is still VERY confusing. Now there are 3 different manufacturers in the game:

1. Skymedi, which seems to be the manufacturer of the chip,

2. Lexar ("VID_05DC"?),

3. ValGear.

I get "VID_1516" as the vendor ID-number, so it does not seem to be Lexar? Confused. And in addition the read/write speed of the CnMemory stick seems to be significantly lower than the Skymedi specifications:

Hey Maximum-Decim. Nice with a new release :thumbup

Could you upload the .SED-file for v3.0 somewhere, so others are able to build localized versions of NUSB?

do I need a localized version of wdmstub.sys?

No, Lexar is out of the "game", the post on 911CD I referred to was a sequel to a few e-mails I had with wm_raim, wher he cleared that he was trying with TWO sticks, one a Lexar With Vid 05DCh and Pid 0080h and the other one the GXT with Vid 1516h Pid 8628h.

Sorry for the mix-up.

Usually the manufacturer of the chip has his own Vid/Pid, when he sells his product to the makers of the flash stick, he gives them an utility to change Vid/Pid to that of the stick manufacturer (if he has one), as a cascade, when the stick manufacturer actually tests the stick he has the option to insert the Vid/Pid (if any) of the Commercial company that has the "Brand" name and that actually sells the stick on the market.

Acquiring a Vid is relatively easy and cheap:

http://www.usb.org/developers/vendor/

while the Pid is an internal code, that in some cases is "meaningful", i.e. OtI sticks have Pid 2168 if they use chip 2168, Pid 6828 uses chip 6828, etc., but as soon as they developed various versions or "updates" of the chip, it agains loses significance, as an example, if I recall correctly, there is a "F" version of the 2168 and a "G" version with added features that cannot be distinguished by Pid.

Given the above it is easy to envision a scenario where Vid can mean:

1) Chip manufacturer (most of them)

2) Stick manufacturer (I think few of them that payed the $2000/$4,000.00 fee)

3) Commercial vendor of stick (I think still fewer that payed the $2000/$4,000.00 fee)

About speed, I cannot say, but the reference to 23x on the cnmemory.de site could be related to the 23.1 Speed on the skymedi site? :blink:

Speed of a flash device appears to be something "unmeasurable" without a standard, however the Ratio between 31.1 whatever for Read Access and 21.3 whatever for Write Access seems just not right :whistle:

Check these:

http://www.anandtech.com/printarticle.aspx?i=2549

http://arstechnica.com/reviews/hardware/flash.ars/1

http://arstechnica.com/reviews/hardware/flash2005.ars

for a speed comparison and to see how much speed is influenced on size of what you are reading/writing.

In your case I think that we fall in point 1) above, where two different commercial companies, valgear with its brand GXT and cnmemory with it's own name offer on the market sticks that mantain the Vid of the Chip manufacturer (and use the chip manufacturer driver for Win98).

P.S.: Sorry if I am somehow hijacking this thread.... :ph34r:

Hi Maximum-Decim.

Thank you for the new version.

I second what Jonazz wrote a couple of posts earlier.

A .sed file would be really nice for the new version, so it is possible to compile versions with other languages.

Please!, Cause I'm looking forward to try a newer and even better version than Nusb221da.

Hey Maximum-Decim. Nice with a new release :thumbup

Could you upload the .SED-file for v3.0 somewhere, so others are able to build localized versions of NUSB?

do I need a localized version of wdmstub.sys?

Can I just say.... "Mate you are a champion!!!"

I am sure like many others, your USB patch, along with the works by LLXX, MDGx and many others, is the only reason we can still viably use Windows 98 SE as a productive work horse and not just a sentimental hobby machine!!!

Thankyou :thumbup
