alsut Posted January 12, 2007 Report Share Posted January 12, 2007 Can anyone please help me.. I have just bought the NW-E005 and loaded all the sonicstage software onto my PC but when I plug the player into the USB port it doesnt seem to recognise it. When I have gone into the Maintanence and System section on my PC and selected ‘Re-Install Driver’ I just get an error message which states’ A Service installation section in this INF is invalid’ Does anyone know what this means ?? I have tried removing all the software and re-installing it and it still doesn’t work… aargh, i use windows XP media edition Please help Al x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Stuge Posted January 13, 2007 Report Share Posted January 13, 2007 Welcome to AtracLife !THis usually happens when driver files are not copied to the correct folder. Make sure that you have Administration Rights on your computer during installation.On many Forums I have read that people have to reinstall Windows Xp to overcome this kind of problem (I hope you will not a have to do that )Also ,Install SonicStage ver4.2 (If you haven't done that ).From here download the drivers & ,then try to install it again .

yuci Posted January 14, 2007 Report Share Posted January 14, 2007 Hi!I have exactly the same problem. The NW-E005 doesn't show up in windows explorer and sonic stage can't see it either. I run XP Pro and I am the administrator. I tried plugging the thing in every USB port on the PC but no cigar. The firmware upgrade program can't find it either. Which is the correct folder to install the driver files? Maybe doing this manually would help?Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did anyone manage to solve the problem? Thanks. Sazzy.Try googling the exact error message, "A Service installation section in this INF is invalid". There is a lot dicussion about this. It seems as though the message is not specific to Sony DAPs. Perhaps you can find a solution from those that are posted elsewhere.Please report back what you learn.LuLu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
