All,
Looks like my original GQ-4X has quit on me and will not burn anything. I've had it for about 10 years and it's been generally pretty reliable, but now whenever I try to write to any chip at all, it just hangs and then gives an error message after maybe 30 seconds or so.
I opened it up, and nothing seems to be amiss inside.
So I think I'll need to buy a new one.
Question: I am using the GQ-4X with an old computer running Windows Vista with USB 2.0. Will the new GX-4X4 that has a USB 3.0 driver work with this older system?
I'd like to know the above before I buy a new one is all.
Thanks,
Jon |

Thanks. I just ordered a new unit.
Wish I knew why my original quit, but I guess I got my usage out of it. |

Did you perform the hardware test? |
