Can't find working driver for Windows XP: Simple Tech SmartM

[shassouneh 0]

Hi All,

I can't seem to find a WORKING WIndows XP driver for this device. I have managed to find Windows 2000 drivers. However, uipon Installation, Device manager complains that the drivers are not XP-certified. Furthermore, If this warning is ignored, it will simply restart the computer and never boot up again! I tried Safe made but it wouldn't boot either. I eventually had to try the "Last Known Good Configuration" to boot up!

Anyways, It looks like the manufacturer never bothered to provide Windows-xp compatible drivers for this device. Please help if you can!

 

NOTE: I checked the NTCompatible Hardware compatibility list and it says the device works under Widnows 2000.

 

Again, Overview:

 

Hardware device: Simple Tech PhotoReader SmartMedia USB

Problem: Can't find a Windows XP driver. Windows 2000 drivers will cause windows XP to crash!

 

Please do help if you can. I would really appreciate it!
