    Hello, Thanks for your information. The 8051 series sounds nice and I have some experiance with them from college. I failed to find a C++ compiler for the board.. :sigh: I'll probably have to get some decent budget for this undertaking of mine and I assume that it is an almost once-in-a-lifetime purchase, so I better do it good. :-D Behind every great black man...             ... is the police. - Conspiracy brother Blog[^]

    ClaireH, just from looking at your snippit, It appears your using the api functions for the usbr30.dll and not the WDM.

    Vikas [[]]: There are several reasons for that: 1) VC++ does not inline functions implemented in a diferent module from its declaration (at least for classes, the rest i don´t know). See this http://www.codecomments.com/archive292-2004-11-329446.html 2) Functions containing while cycles will not expand inline 3) Functions calling inline functions will not expand inline I think that´s all.

    If you want to generate randomness interms of numbers, then you can add some huge numbers and make overflow in the register. The generated number everytime will be the random number Anil Kumar

    The are several thing who can reboot your pc, but I think it's probably your power supply, check if your connection with your motherboard are ok.

    Thanks. For what it's worth, I got the processor wrong - it's a VIA C3, not C1. I found some reviews (Tom's Hardware, etc) which indicate that the floating point unit on a C3 is lousy. On benchmarks, the 1GHz C3 performs between a 433MHz Celeron and a 1GHz Celeron (depends on the test.) Since I was happy until recently with my 667 MHz Celeron (when I wasn't building projects in Visual Studio 6), a student can live with a 1GHz C3 notebook!
