I've solved it this way. From a clean XP install, I never installed the whole ppmmc package thingy. I just "updated" the unrecognized device with the xp driver package from scmmicro. (The one that they say is "beta" driver and will not be supported) Works like a charm for me. If you've still go a problem feel free to pm me.

Chrisley,
when I installed I choose to find the files myself. ( epmmc2k ) and chose to install the mmc reader as a system device.
In the control panel--> system-->hardware-->device manager --> system devices....
I can see my 'parallel port multimediacard' installed there.
Are you in the UK?

Fregor and Ofiaich,
Thanks! "System device" was the magic word. I had tried installing manually before, but had chosen "storage device", for obvious reasons, and it didn't work. But everything is fine now!
Thanks again,
Ron
PS Yes, I'm in Birmingham, UK.

By the way, have you noticed how even after Windows says it is finished copying files to the MMC, if you remove the card from the drive, Windows will complain it hasn't finished? This will usually result in a corrupted file which you might not notice until halfway through playing it, only to find that you are getting data played back that was on the disk before! Then if you try to delete the file, you get more problems, eventually (possibly) requiring you to format the disk.
My workaround is to monitor the CPU usagae (via Windows Task Manager or Norton System Doctor). When copying files to the MMC, a process labelled "System" uses 90%+ of my CPU. When finished copying, CPU usage falls back to normal baseline. Then I can safely remove the MMC. It usually takes a copule of minutes to copy a 20MB file.
Is this useful to anyone?

This usually happens if you copy each file sepetatly or you copy a file that is locked by a program

control panel -> system properties -> hardware -> device manager:
remove Shuttle Etapi device, detect hardware changes, install device from a list, choose system device, associate it with:
epmmc2k - a system file 145 Kb
epmmc2k - setup information 2 Kb.
(these files are in the win2000 drivers)
This works for me everytime i have to reinstall the mmc reader. Hope it helps, btw i don't take responsibility if it screws up your comp.

The HPM-10 parallel port card reader works with XP but you have to fool around with it for a while. The instruction above seems similar to what I did. Generally when saving to the MMC it is a good idea to leave it in the reader for a couple of minutes even though Windows says that it has finished copying. Furthermore don't bother with the XP function that lets you "safely remove the card" - it will just lock up on you. Just pull out the card instead.
