US-1800 driver problems.

Okay.

Hey guys.

I bought a tascam us-1800 the other week, and it arrived today. I put in the driver disc, and followed the instructions. However, after the part that instructs you to put in the USB, it says it failed, and gives me error code 0x0006.

I've downloaded the latest drivers, but it still fails. Any ideas people of the Internet??

Thanks
Bill

1800 turned on?

[DeafeningQuill]

I Switch it on, when I plug in the USB, as per the instructions...

Any other ideas?

Sorry, had to start with the obvious.

Is this used? Have another USB cable to try? Is it connected to a USB 2.0 or 3.0 port? Sure you downloaded the correct driver for your computer? What is your computer?

[DeafeningQuill]

No worries. I've done some stupid crap before haha.

Okay.
Yes it is.
No I do not have one with me. I have one from my Pro Tools fast track thingy, that I could try.
I assume 2.0. I've never heard of 3.0, and my laptop is maybe 2 years old, so I guess it's 2.0/
I did. I tried the one on the disc, and downloaded both 32 and 64 versions (just in case) and the 64 one was the same as the one on the disc.

And it's a Dell Inspiron M501R.

Any more ideas?

Try the cable first. Hopefully the unit isn't bunk. It should be recognized.

[DeafeningQuill]

Sure man.

Is there anything common in a household where I could find one, because my other one is at home, and I'm at my dad's this weekend.

If I can;t get one to try it, i'll have to wait a week

[jimmys69]

Printer cable should be the same.

[DeafeningQuill]

Okay man. I'll go and hunt for one. If it works, I'mma rep every one of your posts here =)


EDIT:
GAHHHHHH. Not working. Any other ideas?

[DeafeningQuill]

And I'm still getting the error.
