Re: And it works!
Hiya mate!
Woo-hoo! Cool, it works!
Not sure what your other 'connectivity' driver is, I've never come
across that before! Try looking online for a suitable driver, in
particular, try www.driverguide.com , they have drivers for pretty much
everything (apart from my old Nisis camera, but that's another story).
You'll need to register a username & password, but it's all FREE!
As for installing the games, you'll need to install PCSuite to give
your comuter an association with JAR files. It treats them as a kind of
executable and unpacks them onto your phone via your cable connection.
That way, you just download them, double-click the JAR file and away
you go!
Glad you're getting sorted.
Cheers
Glenn

I do not know what kind of phone you have, but some brands use what is
known as a smart usb cable. These cables contain chips in the end of them
to do some of the work, this is what is known as the chipset.
And these cables need special drivers, but the phone itself will not.
On the other hand, the phones that do not use smart cables need the drivers
for the phones.

The proper way to install any USB device, phones included, is to install
the software, connect the device when prompted, and often times reboot.
Especially if you are using a smart cable.

Are they for your phone? Different phones have different requirements for
the games.

And it works!
Yep it worked. And I didn't have to install any COM port emulation
drivers or fix any IRQs. Will install PC Suite and try to install some
games and apps on it too.
Later.
