And then I finished reading the post and realized that you can see the 
nic. I don't think that the website provided will help.
You say that it gets to 27% and stops. Does it give any errors? What

To be or not to be, that is the question
                2b || !2b
(0b10)*(0b1100010) || !(0b10)*(0b1100010)
        0b11000100 || !0b11000100
        0b11000100 || 0b00111011
               0b11111111
        255, that is the answer.
