C760 Usb Driver Problem

[mikew]

I usually connect my C760 to the same USB port each time I synchronise, just tried it on the other USB port & Windows 2000 did not recognise it.

Tried the same thing on my Windows 2000 portable & the same thing.

Can anyone use any USB port and if so are you using Sharp or Cacko ROM & which version of Windows.

If you connect to another USB port, you have to install the USB drivers on windows from scratch. Windows sees it as an entirely different device.

I personally just stick with the same port all of the time. I'm honestly not sure if I ever really got it to work on another port. I know I installed the drivers again for each port, but I may have given up after that.

I've had other USB devices do this same thing to me on Windows, so it seems like a Windows issue.

Thanks for that clofhand.

I understood that USB is a bus, so it should not make any difference which USB port you use.

I did try installing the drivers when new hardware wizzard came up, still did not work.

Spoke to my Microsoft support people, they have never seen this before & suggested that there was a bug in the Sharp drivers.
