hey everyone, last night, i was trying out some XB/USB cable hacks, and i noticed something rather halting with my equipment (the USB cable). i bought this cable from the dollar store, where i always bought my cables, and have had no troubles with them thus far... all except for this instance. see i stripped the wire, but instead of the red-green-white-black wires, i get pink-white-blue-yellow. now i dont really know what to do from here in a sense b.c i dont know which wire is which. like is the black one the blue one? etc... i think the reason may have been b.c this USB cable is 2.0, or it may have absolutely nothing to do with that. I request that if anyone could, please inform me which wire correlates to the old coloring. like which wire in the cable represent (ex pink wire = red wire). thanks, heres a snapshot. later.
