O.K. Problems solved. But what a weird solution.

The old PRS505 had a problem starting in Calibre but It seems using reader for PC had left a helper folder not shut down. Dissabling this in "Task Manager" solved that.

Now to the problem with the PRS T1.

Every time I connect the reader to the computer "Device Manager" throws up a new folder called "Storage Volumes" and assigns 3 Generic Volumes. This happens before data transfer is available to select. In "My computer" I see three removable discs G,H & I.

If I then go to "Device Manager and uninstall each of the three generic drives they immediately rescan and rename in "My Computer" as "I:Settings" and "G:Reader". From this point the reader works fine with both Sony Reader for PC and with Calibre.

If I then disconnect the reader I have to go through the whole process again.

If anyone knows a more elegant solution I would be very grateful.

Mike
