I have a Toshie Pocket PDA E400,when connecting to the polstar,the error message comes up as:
Enter the name of the device driver for this device,see manufacturers instructions.

What driver do I need? the e400 or the Polstar!! anyone any ideas

Hi,

I don't have experience of either of those devices, but am I right in assuming that the Toshiba is a USB Host (maybe with a special RS232 interface cable), and the Polstar has a serial ("RS232") interface cable?

If so, you probably need a USB-RS232 driver for the adapter/cable (which you may have to obtain), probably using a "Prolific" chip.

If the Polstar is a USB client (i.e it works when plugged into a PC's USB port) then I think you're out of luck because no-one has written suitable drivers for PPCs.

Cheers, Alan.
