Topic: My computer is not recognizing my jb3

[Youneverno41]

When i connect my jb3 to my computer, nothing happens and my computer says I need to insert a CD-ROM for updates but I never recived a CD...how can I fix this?

[svenkid]

you need to transfer jb3 files with the creative jukebox playcenter, which is found from the acommpaning cdrom that comes with the jb3

[Youneverno41]

I bought mine used, and a CD did not come with it

[Youneverno41]

I have a PC by the way...so xnjb does not work

make sure you have the most up to date driver

and get nomad explorer from creative's website

[Youneverno41]

 the program is installed, now when i plug the jb3 in again, nothing happens

[Crumbo]

drivers?

[Youneverno41]

nothing...i open the explorer, and it says "Setup could not detect andy Creative NOMAD Jukebox 2/3/Zen Driver on your system.  Please ensure that your Creative NOMAD Jukebox 2/3/Zen is properly installed before running thie Setup program.  Setup will not exit."

[Crumbo]

umm, make sure you have the latest driver(s)

from that error message it sounds like you don't

you HAVE to install creative's driver for the JB3.....they are pre-installed on windows and you can't find them using the driver wizard

I definitely disagree here.  xNJB only supports usb 1.1 transfers.  If you get the PC transferring working right, it can work with firewire, needless to say, MUCH faster 

But every other audio application, definitely leaps and bounds better than PC.

Just my opinion, of course!
