I have a Toshiba e740 w/Expansion Pack (Includes USB Host port)

I installed a USB Mass Storage driver. I've successfully used a digital camera, thumb drive, hard drive, various card readers, and a floppy drive. But I've yet to find a CD drive that works. I tried an Iomega Super DVD 4x (All formats, DVD/CDħROM/R/W/RAM) that claims to be a 'USB Mass Storage' device but got a 'Unidentified USB Device' error or oddly 'USB OVER CURRENT DETECT' error sometimes (The Drive has it's own power supply, Using a USB hub with its own power doesn't seem to affect the appearence of this message)

Has anyone else been able to successfully use a CD drive on a Pocket PC.


Next questions: CD Burning? DVD?

This is the homepage of the USB Mass Storage Driver for Pocket PC 2002.

He also makes a USB HID driver for Pocket PC that don't alread have one (For Mice and Keyboards). And a Mouse Pointer program/driver (The HID driver merely recognises the mouse input but Pocket PC has no built-in cursor to show where the cursor is located making the mouse extremely difficult to use without MPointer)
