Hi Shaney
The disc is only used if you are running win 98 if you are running XP it should pick the device up without installing drivers, have you tried connecting the divce to your pc!!!!!!!!!!!.:rolleyes:

Yep Ii finally worked.......it seemed I had a bad usb connection. Thanks for the help. Unfortunelty I have another problem. Short of going through the hundreds of other posts here, can someone please please just tell me how to get a movie on there. I have about 30 films stored on my computer through dvd shrink but I when I drag and drop these onto the pmp it doesnt recognise them. The instructions have baffled me, is there just an easy way to get a dvd onto this thing. Its why I bought it

Please help.

I simply drag and drop

I know the pmp recognises many film types.... I have had no probs at all with div x or avi files which I prefer....(from torrentspy )

Regards & enjoy

A bit cheeky - but can any one recommend a fast prog for converting DVD to AVI? I am fairly new to that side and not really sure what i need to be looking for. Any advice would be appriciated..

Danlaur, can you tell me briefly how torrentspy works? is it a simple download website, and are the videos good quality and what they say they are (i.e download a film and it turns out to be !!!!!!)

Been using Limewire but it's intermittent. Great when it works, crap when it decides not to!

Looks like Grundig are not selling this product anymore. They have MSE to thank for clearing out their old stock!
