Sync problems...
« on: September 18, 2003, 05:43:00 pm »
Ok. Everytime I try to sync my 5500, I get the message \"USB Device Not Recognized\". If I uninstall/reinstall everything, I can sync it on a limited basis. But, when I restart, it gives me the same error message... any suggestions?

Thanks. Derek.

I suspect that it is something to do with the way XP treats hotplugable devices. I have similar problems, though not that particular message. Try using the start/stop hardware icon in the taskbar and \'stop\' the zaurus devices before you disconnect. It might cure the problem.

I do seem to have to install/reinstall the Sharp stuff, particularly the drivers, often!

another thing you might want to try is using a different USB port and/or disconnecting any other usb devices.  The Z seems to prefer the main USB ports and not added on ports (ie the ports on the back of the PC will work better than the ones on the front).
