I'm more than casually familiar with the PFS software and Creative devices.
What will happen is that the device will show up in Explorer as a device, but without a drive letter, like my Clix does here:
From there, you can double click on it, browse the device and drag & drop all day long:
BUT... you can't map a drive letter to the device, and you can't use a UNC name to get to the device from within an application.
This is done as a catch to preserve license integrity on the device; yes, even if you have nothing but clear rips on it.
The ONLY media player I know of in
current production (and that's a stretch) that will let you fire up in UMC mode (i.e., as a drive letter), are the IRiver H10 5gig & 6gig models (not the 20). To do this either requires a special boot sequence of the player, or to hack your US player with the European firmware. But, doing _that_ loses the syncing capability with WMP.
