Hello,

I am trying all day but even after reading this forum and some other articles I cannot connect my gamepad with my win7 64 PC to get carbon up and running (fyi: carbon is a backup tool for savegames that does NOT require root but once connection to its windows-based counterpart).

When i connect the gamepad with PC I get the error message "unknown device" (sorry for translation, my windows system is in another language). When I look it up it says that the device is not running properly and thus was stopped. When I select the archos driver (http://www.archos.com/support/support_tech/updates_adb.html?country=us&lang=en) it says that the driver cannot be updated.

When I add a legacy device using this driver (und der android device category) it will install the driver but still complain the device is not functioning.

Please help: Which driver should I use and how can I install it given the described problem?

Hi sithlord9, welcome to here!

About driver for connecting your device with pc, you have got 2 cases:

_In normal and recovery mode: in your pc, please install full AndroidJDK one time only, this way will help recognize all android devices forever: http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html

Remember, after downloaded it, you need to update (also install component called is USB).
Normal is model you can use copy music from pc to device, play game on device. But firstly, enable USB debugger and allow install app from unknown source (in Settings area)

_In bootloader (this model for development accessable to edit, flash, .... rom), you need individual driver for Rockchip (install by manual when pc appear notice new hardware detect)

If anything else, you can feedback here, in my knowledge (English), I will reply you as soon as possible

thanks for the reply but it still does not work.

downloaded the SDK

installed the google drivers

also manually added them in the device manager

but the entry there "android adb interface" still gives error code 10 (device cannot be started)

also, when i plug in the gamepad the taskbar message is "unknown device"

i tried the same, selecting "android composite adb interface", but still the same

i also tried adding the archos drivers from their support ftp (linked from their website), but still the same

PS: with my nexus 7, where i want to copy from to the gamepad, everything works fine ("android composite adb interface" shows up in the device manager and the nexus 7 is found as device")

Well, I don't know why your device and pc doesn't recognized. My device and computer (win, mac) has been recognized very well. On my computer install AndroidJDK with USB component, also stick enable USB debugging on android
