Well, I think this is more like the symptoms.

It'll likely be down to the CF controller chip. If there is a way to easily identify it then that would make such a compatibility database better. I wouldn't rely on what the CF looks like on the outside.

I'd like to find a tool, like PrepCard, but on a Windows machine that can read the CF and dump its controller details.

Maybe the device name when connected through the USB IDE adapter might be good enough for now.
