   Hey! Tom, Strange things happen all the time where I live.   
      
   The XP box doesn't lose my USB AIO's settings when I have the AIO shut   
   off, I turn it on when I want to print something, the job gets done,   
   then I turn it off until I want to use it to Print or Scan something at   
   a later time.   
      
   The AIO is a Epson Stylus NX430.   
      
   It has a USB 2.0 slot on it that sometimes cause me to scratch my head   
   when I notice a extra Drive Letter showing in My Computer/WinExplorer   
   and forgot that it is given a Drive Letter when I turn ON the power to   
   it.   
   Ever Learning (and Forgetting).
