Unlike other highly limited USB utility software, USBINFO™ is compatible not only with standard USB 1.1 and USB 2.0 Controllers that are installed using Microsoft's USB Controller Drivers - But it is also compatible with 3rd Party USB 2.0 Controllers that use 3rd Party Controller Drivers.

For those of you who use different Windows versions, USBINFO™ incorporates extensive display USB Device information gathering and formatting techniques. It is able to take USB information in the varying forms and locations that it exists in the different Windows versions and provide you with consistent display views of your USB Devices that you can use on any Windows version (98/SE/Me/2000/XP) with a consistent look and feel.

USBINFO™ is also a serious tool for those who want to really test their USB Devices and measure their performance in various configurations and on various systems.

USBINFO™ is an invaluable tool for end users as well as more technical people - And even USB hardware and software developers.

USBINFO™ shows all of your USB Devices (Controllers, Root Hubs, External Hubs, and External Devices) including all of the other devices related to your USB Devices such as USB Drives - All on one easy to understand and display. And it is compatible with USB 2.0, USB 1.1 and USB 1.0 Devices.

USBINFO™ also provides a very powerful Performance Test Data Logging feature for saving Performance Test results, reviewing them later, and comparing the Performance Test results of different USB Devices.

USBINFO™ allows you to run a Performance Test on each USB Device individually - It also allows you to run Performance Tests on individual parts of USB Composite Devices such as Multifunction Devices that have more than one type of device like Printer, Scanner, and Card Reader built into one unit.

USBINFO™ allows you to view all of the interfaces of USB Composite Devices which have Multifunction Devices that have more than one type of device in them.

 

USBINFO™ installs a special Filter Driver on the USB Device to allow it to monitor and measure the Data Transferred between the PC and the USB Device.

One of the many USBINFO™ USB Device views is the Topology View which shows the whole system USB Device Tree, including all installed host controllers, hubs, ports and devices, connected to them.

Other views available with USBINFO™ are a complete list of Installed USB Devices from the registry, the complete tree view of USB Device Registry Keys, and the Advanced Technical Information that allows the technically inclined to see the details from inside the USB Devices themselves.

All USBINFO™ USB Device views and displays are cross-referenced so when you click on a particular USB Device in one view, the matching USB Device entry is highlighted in the other views. This allows you to easily see what Registry entries are associated with which USB Device and vice versa.

 

USBINFO™ fully supports the USB implementations on the various Windows versions.

Product Screenshots

Screenshot of the USB Device View and
Selection for Performance Test Window

This window is used to view and browse your USB Devices
 along with the devices related to them such as USB Drives
And then to select which USB Device you want to test.

This particular PC has the following USB Devices on it:

USB 2.0 Controller

USB 2.0 Mass Storage Device with a 60GB USB Drive

Canon USB 2.0 Multifunction Printer/Scanner/Fax/Card Reader

SanDisk USB 2.0 Card Reader with (4) USB Drives


Screenshot of the Performance Test Window

This window is used to test how fast your USB Devices are.

This example shows testing of a USB 2.0 Mass Storage Device
using the built-in USB Drive Test feature. This particular USB Device
is reasonably fast -- Just under 1/2 the total USB 2.0 bandwidth.

Write Data Transfer Rate = 162 Mbits/sec.

Read Data Transfer Rate = 186 Mbits/sec.


Screenshot of the Data Logging Window

This window is used to save Performance Test results to a special log file. It can then be saved for later analysis or compared to other tests.

System Requirements

Processor: Any Intelฎ x86 compatible CPU.

Operating System: Windows 98/98SE/Me/2000/XP - Recommend Windows XP SP1 or newer for best features and functionality.

USB Controllers and Ports: At least (1) USB 1.1 or 2.0 Controller

CPU Speed: Recommended 1Ghz or faster - USBINFO™ should run OK on certain slower CPUs but because of Windows overhead, the Performance Test results will not be as accurate.

System RAM: Recommended 128 MB for Windows 98/SE/Me -- Recommended 256 MB for Windows 2000/XP -- May run OK on faster systems with 128 MB - Although it should run on most systems, it is not recommended to be run on systems with less than 128 MB.

Free Disk Space: Recommended at least 500 MB of extra disk space - USBINFO™ only takes up about 10 MB but it is a good idea to make sure you have plenty of extra disk space so Windows has plenty of working space for its swap files.

3rd Party Software Requirements: You will need to install a PDF File View Software such as Adobe Acrobat Reader.

Special Login Requirements: On Windows 2000/XP you must be logged on as a user with Administrator privileges - This version requires application level Administrator privileges in order to access certain registry keys and write the special filter driver registry entries.

Difference Between Personal Edition & Professional Edition
