Notes:
It might take several seconds for the device (the Thomson Lyra AV Jukebox) to be detected,
especially in Windows 2000/XP. Click Refresh in My Computer or Explorer to make sure the device has been
detected.
The Thomson Lyra AV Jukebox is capable of transferring files at high-speed mode of USB 2.0. This is up to
40 times faster than USB 1.1. If USB 2.0 port is available on your computer, use it to connect to your
Thomson Lyra AV Jukebox. The Thomson Lyra AV Jukebox is still backward compatible with the older USB
1.1 ports. However, you won’t be able to take full advantage of the potential speed increase.
