Title: E280 V1 Drivers prob with RB 3.4
Post by: JoelIrwin on November 24, 2009, 01:26:29 AM
Ever since I upgraded to 3.4, when I turn on the E280 and then connect the USB cable under Vista 32 bit, I see it trying to install drivers.  Then I get an error message followed by a corrupted drivers message.

Never had these problems in the previous RB version.  Has then been discussed here already - if so, is there a fix/workaround, or should I go back to the prev RB version?

I am seeing a similar problem on one of my e200 v1 devices.  It seems to be caused by the USB HID support that was added in version 3.4

The current builds have a setting to disable the USB HID support.  You can change the setting by going to Settings->General Settings->System->USB HID.  This setting is not in version 3.4, so you will need to update to a current/daily build.

After turning this setting off, my e200 v1 now connects properly.

Thanks - changed HID to NO.  Next time it connected Vista once again did a "Installing Drivers".  It was successful and no error message.  The time after that three dialogs appeared with "dshf43erd" in the window title.  Once said: "Runtime Error '70' Permission Denied".  The other said the same thing.  Then a third dialog with window title "Error" said "The setup files are corrupted.  Please obtain a new copy of the program".  Is this coming from Rockbox?  Happens right after I connect.  I have the daily build from yesterday.
