Purchased an Olympus VN-4100PV digital voice recorder a couple of months ago at Radioshack. (no software came with it)
Recently purchased new PC with Vista 64-bit. Recorder will not work.
Called Olympus today, 12-3-08 and was told no driver is going to be
issued to remedy this situation, thus rendering my device useless.
Thanks for nothing Olympus product support.
