No Usb Connection After 1.4.0 Upgrade

[RogTheDodge]

Help
Just updated my firmware to v1.4.0 and now there is no USB connection to the PC. I get the 'beep' from the PC to say it's connected, but no SD drive icon in My Computer.
Everything else seems OK - games etc.
Any ideas?

Thanks

Roger

Try plugging it into a USB1.1 port, that helped on my PC for the exact same problem.

It really seems like 1.4 messed up the usb connection even more

Hi Julius
Yes thanks, that worked on my laptop that has USB 1.1. Not much use to me as I need it to connect to my main PC that only has USB 2.0!
Anyone know if there will be a fix soon?

What I had to do was go into Device Manager and disable "USB2 Enhanced Host Controller" - this forced my USB2.0 to act as a 1.1 and allow the GP2X to connect... it's slower but without a card reader, it's really the only way I know of connecting right now.

Thanks for the tip - that's a good suggestion. It's also annoying that this is even necessary.

Card readers can be had for about £5 on ebay. It's really the way to go, particularly when you consider that a gig of video will take about 16 minutes at USB1.1 speed.

Or wait and see if it's fixed in the 1.5 firmware due out this month.
