Unknown device received for JVC Everio Gz-MN21U

Please check the camcorder with another PC so as to confirm the hardware in the camcorder. If this is not detected then there are errors in the camcorder main processing section which is not interfacing with the external port.
however if the camcorder works with another PC then it is possible that you PC has to be reinstalled with the OS and the drivers.

then i think its nt compatiable with vista

Did you resolve this?- I have the same thing (running Vista home Premium) my PC does not even recognise when camcorder is connected. Tried on an XP laptop and works fine. Also tried on another Vista laptop and same problem.

i use the video to Windows Movie maker below successfully import the footage

load the drivers so windows can find it

If it is a JVC digital camera (DVC or hard drive) you need to have the camera set to the "Play" mode, and turned on before plugging in the camera. Vista should recognize it as a digital source afterwards. You need to have a firewire or USB cable for the camera, and the port it plugs into needs to be recognized. Be sure you don't have an unrecognized device in /Control Panels/Device Manager/

Hope this helps. [email protected]

Have you tried installing the supplied software the Setup/Install program in Administrator Mode, with Compatibility Mode set for XP? Install the software like this and AFTER you install it THEN plug in the camera, if it asks for drivers.. let it search the computer point or it to the CD.. Hope this was of some help.
