Portadisc is compatible with operating systems 98SE, 2000, XP, ME and also
MAC OS.
'Unknown device' is most likely due to the fact that the USB2 chipset in the
computer is not fully backward compatible with USB1 audio streaming although
it should be. The usual solution is to use a USB hub between the computer
and Portadisc

Subject: [Nature Recordists] Portadisc
Just bought a Portadisc and really love it. I had a very good day
recording yesterday in the field. Then .... I tried to download my
new files to my laptop. It seems that my laptop, that operates on
Microsoft XP, doesn't recognise the Portadisc. I only get
an 'unknown device' message.
Then I tried to access the Portadisc using my desktop computer. This
computer uses Windows 98SE. The computer recognized the Portadisc,
but gave me a message that I need to have 'Windows Media Format
Runtime' . Without the file 'name' I haven't been able to find it on
the internet or on Microsofts site.
Can anyone help with either problem? Thank you very much for your
help I have really received a lot of help from this site.
