Hi,

I just got my Cybook Gen3 ,. ...and got trouble with battery and USB port.
I hope that someone here might be able to help me

Here is what happened:

charged the Cybook. I used the USB adapter from Cybook gen3 package.
turn on, everything worked flawlessly. The battery was 60 %
turn off then charge it. 5 hours later, the charge indication still red. I became worried, and turn my cybook on. The battery indication became less, 50 %
then I tried charge it by connected it to my Laptop (Fujitsu C series - windows XP) for the first time
The USB icon device didn't show up. i tried put sd card at cybook, but it doesn't show up either on my laptop. But Show up in my Cybook.
I unplugged it again and tried every single USB port on my laptop ( there 3 USB port), still not work. My laptop doesn't even recognize that the Cybook is there
i also tried pressing the reset button on the back of the Cybook. And it still have same problem.The USB icon doesn't show up.
I tried charge again it became less, 40 % now.

what should I do ? I sent mail to booken today. Still wait their reply

btw i am in Indonesia. The voltage here is 220 V.

if possible i don't want use the extra battery, at Cybook3 package. It’s difficult to find this battery here.

thank you
