Hi,

I am trying to transfer some pictures from a Nokia 6020 to my PC using a
Irda dongle as sold by Maplin:

http://www.maplin.co.uk/Module.aspx?ModuleNo1674&criteria=irda&doy=9m6

The problem is I cannot find the drivers needed for the dongle anywhere,
there is no model on it it just says: USB-IrDA CE FC 5Vdc 440mA. Anyone know
where I can get the drivers?

Thanks.

It says supplied with software and cable so didnt you get a CD or
something with the dongle?
Failing that, what operating system is on your computer?
Once the dongle has been plugged into the computer, if you can find it in
the hardware manager, you may be able to get some more information as to the
make/model...

When I plug it in it goes to look for drivers but fails when it cant find
any.

The easiest thing is probably to just buy a new dongle. You can get one for
about a fiver!
eg:
