I installed successfully the HPM-10 on my computer with Win XP Pro but I searched a long time from where the problem was coming!!!
The first important thing is to have a card inside the reader I think, but the real problem for myself was my printer. I have disconnected it and rebooted the PC and it works fine!!??!
But now I should reboot my PC everytime I want to use the card reader (or the printer)

I think its a problem with the write-back buffer features of XP, problem is that you cant disable it as it fakes the reader as a SCSI device (uck!). If anyone knows a fudge to get round this then please tell me

On a further note, its not DirectX/OpenGL...as i was trying to open NWN which uses SecureROM, so i guess it was trying to status the reader (removable drives seemed to get scanned by SecureROM) to check if the game CD was in there....
Problem exists that XP cant detect when the flash card has been removed and still thinks there is a card in there for about 10 mins....

I've got the mp3 player t68 > t68i upgrade... and windows xp and i had no problems with the reader, just downloaded the new drivers and boom, worked perfectly... im also able to get about 15-18 songs on the 32mb card... just re-encode the mp3s down to a bitrate in the 30's or 20's even... you can't tell the difference comin outta the headphones that came with the player, so its not a big deal, and it cuts the file size way down...

A small program called Diet MP3 also does the job very nicely.
When I first got my player, I was only able to get an average of 6 songs on the 32MB card, now I can get over 23 songs on that same card! And the sound quality is still pretty impressive considering the size and type of the device that is the HPM-10.

Yes it reduces the size of the MP3 file
Actually it creates a smaller, lower quality copy of the file which you can then transfer to your MMC or SD card.
It shouldn't matter if you're using SD or MMC because it creates new compressed files and you just copy them to whatever device you're using - as long as it's setup with Windows.
I love my HPM-10 more than ever now
