Gpdrive Prob

[0-bake]

hi,

i tried to use gpdrive (0.5), i'm using win2k sp4, on my gp is mf2, but when i start gpdrive, nothing happens. i mean, there should appear a drive in the explorer, shouldn't it?
the gp screen says, "working... press select to empty cache and exit", so i think, the prob is on my pc...

any suggestions?

Start GPdrive and afterwards connect it to your PC. If you connect it before starting, it won't work.
If this doesn't help check out Squidge's GPdrive thread: http://www.gp32x.de/board/index.php?showtopic=8146

Is it something simple like you're plugging in the cable before starting GPdrive.

You need to

1. start GPdrive

2. Plug in the usb cable

Then GPdrive should auto connect.

Beaten to it LOL

hmm, pls note that with win 2000 it wont work properly (really slow writing and you cant transfer files from GP to PC)

GPdrive is totally Win2000 compatible since 0.5, I've never had the issue you're talking about

I just tried gpDrive on my mac (OSX) and it works nicely - only problem is that OSX creates some extra crap on the card (.Trashes, etc).

Still cool though...

Kind of puts a dampener on my GUI Maclink app though...

Well, I tried on 2 PCs running Windows 2000 Pro, one with SP4 and the other SP3 I think and it didn't work as i should.. But i tried on a WinXP Family laptop and it worked like a charm

[edit]
oh, and when i say you can't transfer files from GP to PC, it works but only for really small files (a few kb big)
