  Troubleshooting

17.1

  USB Connection issues

Problem

: I cannot get my Gmini 400 to be recognized by the computer.

Solutions

:

•  Shut  off  and  reboot  the  computer  and  the  Gmini  400  and  then  try 

connecting again in the preferred order mentioned in section 13.1.

•  Only if using Windows 98SE, you must first install the Windows98SE 

drivers.

•  If you installed the Windows 98SE driver on your Windows

®

 XP, 2000, 

or ME edition, this could cause problems. Uninstall that driver and then 
reinstall the generic Windows

®

 Mass Storage Device driver.

•  If using a USB hub, try connecting without using the hub (some hubs 

are not powered and may not work with the Gmini 400).

•  If using a USB port in the front of your computer, try a USB port in the 

back. Front USB ports are often from non-powered hubs.

•  Do not connect to a USB port repeated through a keyboard.
•  On old computers, the USB driver software on your computer may be 

out of date. Find your USB chipset type by going to My Computer > 
Properties > Device Driver > Universal Serial Bus (USB) Controllers > 
Host Controller. You may have a chipset VIA, Intel, SIS or another. It 
is possible that you do not have the latest software drivers for these 
chipsets.  For  VIA  updates,  check  out  www.viaarena.com.  For  Intel 
check out www.intel.com. For SIS, uninstall the driver and reinstall the 
Windows default USB controller drivers. 

•  If  using  a  laptop  computer  and  a  docking  station,  try  connecting 

without the docking station.

•  If Macintosh

®

 OS 10.1.x says it cannot mount the volume, you can use 

Disk Utility to reformat the Jukebox hard disk to type MS DOS FAT32. 
However, files will only be readable from a Macintosh

®

, not a Windows

®

 

machine. You should update to version 10.2.4 or better. 

•  On older computers, make sure in your system BIOS the USB port is 

checked “ON” not “Off”. Usually this just happens on old machines.

•  On  older  Win98SE  computers,  if  there  is  a  line  “lastdrive=”  in  the 

config.sys file, make sure that it is “lastdrive=z”.

•  If the Files Allocation Table (FAT) gets corrupted, the Gmini 400 may
