No, Windows XP is funny about stuff like that. My card reader can prevent
Windows from starting if I fail to disconnect it before rebooting my
computer. This is a common problem.

I don't know about your question, but your computer not starting is likely a problem with your usb ports. The second part may well have to do with the bookport.

Hi all,
I have a feeling that when bookport launcher is activated and I connect my mp3 player, nothing happens. Heres what happens:
1. The computer is powered off, and I connect my mp3 player.
2. I turn the computer on. I end up having to unplug the player in order for windows to start.
3. When windows starts and I plug the player in again, I did an experement: I opened bookport transfer. Nothing happens.
4. I disconnect the player. I here the usual sound that means the bookport is not connected.
5. I connect the player again: and close the transfer software. It stil won't come up as a removable disk (my mp3 player, I mean).
6. When I disconnect and connect the player again, it will come up as a removable disk, like normal. I am wondering, would the transfer software somehow associate my player with the bookport?
just curious, and thanks. Tyler
