Wilhelmus 1 Posted March 23, 2005 First plug power cable, then wait about 10 seconds to it power on, before plugging the usb cable in. What error you got? What OS you got? XP? Share this post Link to post

Wilhelmus 1 Posted March 25, 2005 Quote: it doesnt recognize it... in other computer neither... If the other computer(s) does not recognize it, then the device is most likely malfunction. If the device's warranty is still valid, take it back to place where you bought it and replace it with new. Share this post Link to post
