Don't let that glitch stop you. I've just learned to disconnect mine when
I've finished with it. Actually, you'll love using a card reader to assist
with Book Port files and folders. When you load Book Port, its contents
won't appear in alphabetical order but in the order in which you transferred
them. Well, I like to transfer the contents of a cf card to my computer,
erase the card, and re-load the files using the card reader. Everything is
nicely alphabetized if you do that. This isn't an issue with just a few
files, but my main BP library consists of an entire gig of BRF and TXT files
divided into 127 folders. Having everything alphabetized is essential
unless I want to sort through several thousand files, which isn't an option.
Really, a card reader is a wonderful adjunct.

I'm using windows xp, so there we go. And I was thinking on getting a card reader to make it faster for file transfer and to lessen the amount of batterylife drained from the bookport when it is connected to my computer.

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
