Have you tried running the software manually after connecting the device? = Let's see what you get that way. >>> n0oxy@xxxxxxxxxxx Tuesday, September 21, 2004 12:21:02 AM >>> I just received my book port today, and I'm having the exact same problem. Originally, the book port was 1.05. I installed the software, and = restarted the computer. I plugged in the book port, and the system asked for the windows 2000 cd which I supplied, once the drive was installed, I ran the book port transfer software. It said that a new version of the firm ware = was required in order to transfer files with this version of the transfer software. The firmware upgrade worked fine, and when I disconnected the = book port, after a moment, I believe it said 1.20 ready or something like that. ever since then, whenever I connect it, it always shows up as a drive letter, which has no conflicts, but the software does not see it. I even connected it to several usb ports with the same result. Nice to know I'm = not the only one having this problem. ----- Original Message -----=20 From: "consumer" <consumer@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <bookport@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Monday, September 20, 2004 10:20 PM Subject: [bookport] Re: device no longer recongnized after firmware = upgrade > I removed the device and plugged it back in.
