I have the windows driver sources for the device, it does _not_ write anything to the EEPROM under any circumstance. moreover the EEPROM is write protected in hardware by a jumper.

On booting up windows, it could have changed some BIOS stuff (written something to NVRAM or something like that ?).. that's the only possibility that i can see here. really lost on this one. regards, manu - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
