<< < (3/3)

http://www.rockbox.org/tracker/task/9957 mentions having start screen set to Database may also cause problems.

Thanks yapper but I note from another thread:

--- Quote from: AlexP on March 30, 2008, 06:45:08 AM ---Rockbox does not yet have a USB mode for the c200s (and indeed all portalplayer devices).  Please use the OF to transfer music.

The above is a response to someone who has a similar issue to what I now have when plugging in USB cable.

Regardless of what I set my start screen to (as warned by BruceHP),
when I plug USB cable in, the screen Flashes the following sequence over and over again:
SansaDisk Logo
RockBox Logo & "Boot Ver. 20108-09022"
RockBox Logo & "Ver. 19569-081223"
USB Icon

My computer (running XP) does not show any device connected.

When I interrupt the above flashing sequence by pressing the Select button on my
Sansa 250c, XP asks me to install a driver.

Can anyone please tell me what driver XP means? I never had to install drivers for my Sansa 250c up until now. Or is AlexP whom I quoted above correct: this whole quest is futile on 250c?

You'll note that that quote from me is from March 2008 - quite a long time ago.  At the time it was true, it no longer is.  Rockbox has a USB mode on the c200 now.

What should happen is that when you plug in the sansa from off, it boots the OF and goes to USB mode.  When you plug in from Rockbox it uses Rockbox USB mode.

You seem to be running a very old version. Use Rockbox Utility to update to something a lot more recent.

Well spotted both of you (AlexP & yapper). Installing latest rockbox indeed fixed the problem and it works perfectly. Thanks.
