Thanks. I reformatted that first partition to exFAT and XP still couldn't see it. Then I deleted that partition and I was hoping XP would see the empty 2TB space and format it. But no, I guess that second partition being NTFS prevents XP from doing anything with the drive.

I did run DISKPART from XP and it does have a column for GPT, but it couldn't see the drive anyway, so it doesn't show that drive. Zentimo (a fancy USB utility) does see the controller under XP (so I can safely remove it), but it also does not see the disk itself.

And thanks about Paragon. Yes I have used their software for years.

I think the overall size of the drive is the problem. Had a customer one time wanting to use a 6TB drive on an XP machine (Boot & Data) and no matter how I partitioned it all I could get it to see was just 2TB. Supposedly Windows XP 64Bit has GPT drivers built in, but your BIOS has to support UEFI booting and that creates another headache trying to find 64Bit drivers for devices...

Since he had an older board, XP 64Bit was out of the question, he ended up buying Windows 7 and then it was just a matter of a clean setup and reinstalling all of his apps and data...

Ask me how much I really don't miss doing that stuff on a daily basis anymore...

Wow, that package took 5 minutes short of forever to get there. Glad you are enjoying them.

Those SS 430 26g/36g, 3mm, 4 wrap fused claptons were a little too hot for me on my Hadaly. You could rewrap them 5 wraps on 2.5mm?

Edit: Now that I'm thinking about it I think I settled on 430 SS 28g/36g, 2.5mm, 5 wrap fused claptons for the Hadaly.

Instead of putting our all of our elderly out on the ice flows to live out their final years, Canada Post employs some of them to do rural delivery. Patience is one thing we learn living in the willy wags.

I don't mind it in the Hadaly, but I likes em hot and greasy. I put one in the Gear rta last night, it's basically a dripper with a side tank, the coil is right there just below the drip tip. Very tasty but it's a vape vape fill, vape vape fill.

The Fire HD 8 has such an awesome camera.

I decided to have a look at the one Boro box that I had sitting, the one that was full and became empty. From what I see the glass /gasket/box fittment is the problem. I guess I could narrow it down to the boxes grooves are off a bit.

Gee my new car is almost a year old now. I went out to the mail box to get the memory stick that I had ordered and the notice for my California registration was there too. $306. Ca. puts jewlery tax on cars, what it's worth determines the fee, in the end the lowest is about $130 per year with smog certificate every 2nd year after 5 years old. (starting at 6 year old).

@BillW50, XvoStick say's "accepted for shipping" on my account page, not sure if Econo shipping includes tracking given to me or not. Surely they can track it.

On it. Best Buy said they will send out another one and it will be here tomorrow on the phone. But after their website updated and it shows shipped, it now says Tuesday delivery and not Saturday. I guess you got to take what they say with a grain of salt.

Did it make it today?

 

[BillW50]

Did it make it today?

Nope! I can order fake leather from China and it gets here in 8 days. But ordering a laptop from Best Buy takes more than 12 days.

The good news is it is only 300 miles away now.

It appears that I got ahead of myself concerning XvoStick, from their site:
What means state Accepted for shipping?
Accepted for shipping means that the order is fully paid and that it will be shipped as soon as it is available. But we need to finalize the production first.

Nope...still dead.....

Now I have to work out whether an RMA is worth it? Postage from Australia and back may be prohibitive?
