interestingly, I have a palm m515, that I haven't installe the drivers for yet.

How did you remove the old driver crap?

:D 4 simple steps...

1) Format C:
2) Reinstall XP
3) Install the MO drivers (I used the V1.0 drivers from this forum)
4) Restore the essential data you backed up. :jawdrop:

It's a bit extreme, it would be "more elegant" to plug in the conflicting item ...

yup, the first of the two drivers installs fine. (for me)
I *think* (guess) that, as I have been "temporarily" installing quite a lot of stuff using USB, something else had installed a driver "service" named "USB Serial Port".
Since whatever it was is no longer connected to my system, it doesn't ...

Can I have it?

I've got a "Black and Purple" theme going with my current case, but had to settle for a red LCD, 'cos I'm avoiding blue.

rebuilt windows, installed the USB_V10 drivers and loaded on LCDC

Works perfectly :-)

even after loading on SP1

I wait with interest to see which of my USB drivers was conflicting...

This may be the same problem as Cerebral is having ( MX2 USB Drivers Not Working with XP SP1 ??? )
but I'll post as new thread just in case.

Story:
I got an MX213 USB today (God bless KustomPCs !) and it all lit up fine and dandy.

obligatory "but..."

When I install the drivers, it runs through ...

sorry if this is a bit on topic
The single reason I got a USB model over a serial one is that I can plug the usb straight onto one of my internal MB headers.

I don't like the idea of having to trail a cable out of my box, just to loop round into an "external" connector!
