Ipod 5.5gen+XP: Driver for "Rockbox media player" not found?
« on: April 12, 2008, 07:48:07 AM »
Each time i plug my Ipod 5.5gen into USB and it boots or already is in Rockbox windows XP shows a "New hardware found" in the taskbar and pops up a dialog for the installation of a "Rockbox media player".
If i click on automatically install it ends up with an "error during installation".

What is wrong about that? How can i istall this driver?

I'll quote the front page of the website:

New USB stack with limited capability. Currently it only requests full charging power. Ignore driver popups from Windows.

ok, i see.
A workaround is to go "device manager" and to "deactivate" (not uninstall) this wrongly installed device. Afterwards there will be no popup any more.

if you boot the apple firmware on the ipod the driver problems will go away.
