    No. This is 15 year old software. I have found a copy of Humax Media eLinker if you want to try that although my recollection is that it was pretty dire. Your alternative is to go back to the starting point of this discussion and buy the IDE to USB adapter so that you can use humaxrw with its front end.

    Tried the Humax Media eLinker in win XP and the window opens, but I cant connect or see the humax harddrive, it just says something like no connection restart your reciver, do I have to install some other driver also for it to work???

    To long ago for me to remember with any certainty but I don't think so unless your XP is 64 bit.

    Did you follow the suggestion it offered?

    I think that most people who reported online were using version 2.1 and its accompanying driver without an driver issues on 32bit XP machines.
    For those that did have some difficulty there was conjecture that some USB chipsets on PCs tended to have more driver issues than some others.

    I initially used to use Media eLinker version 2.4 on a 32bit XP. The driver which comes with version 2.4 is the same as the driver that comes with 2.1.
    Later I switched to version 2.7 but was under the impression that I continued to use the driver from version 2.1/2.4.

    Have you also rebooted the XP since installing?

    Perhaps you are beginning to understand why the most common suggestion here is to use humaxrw which does work on modern versions of Windows and also with Linux.

    If a remove the Humax harddrive is it possible to connect the Humax harddrive directly to the IDE Cable of a PC that runs windows 10? or do I need to have a IDE to USB Cable?
