I have purchased a Hanvon n516 for the sole purpose of installing OpenInkpot. I have connected to computer via usb but when I boot up (while holding the rotate button) the light on the Hanvon comes on but only at about half brightness. Nothing else happens and it doesn't register that it is connected (although it does if it is booted up normally). I can only get it out of this state by pressing the reset.

I tried running the USB_Boot.exe anyway but only get an error (Boot fail! Can not connect device!)

If anyone has any suggestions of what I can try next it would be greatly appreciated.

I bought it for my Dad and I want OpenInkpot for the better font size options that the Hanvon doesn't have.
