Are different drivers required for new reader?

Hi Alex,

Received the new Delart SIM card reader today. Tried installing it with the drivers I have from the earlier version. But have incorrect indication when checking the device manager. It has the exclamation point in yellow.

So I don't know if the drivers are right or wrong for the new one, or if I'm just doing something wrong. Here's what I'm doing.

I run SIMreader.exe. Agree to the license info. Then it puts the drivers into c:\program files\dekart\simreader. It then says finished and to reboot. Reboot, put the reader into the USB port and the XP wizard finally appears. It asks where the drivers are located. I tell it the above location. But the process says it fails after that point. I'm guessing the drivers are wrong? But the plastic housing is black and I can't see if it is still using the Alcor chip or some new one.

BTW did you check the one I sent back? My suspicion says the problem it was having was one of the inside 2 pins on the USB connector had a cold solder joint. The two outside pins supply power and the LED would light so I'd think they were OK.

The new model requires a new driver, you can download it from this address: http://files.dekart.com/tools/Dekart-PCSC38.zip

Thanks Alex, the reader is running with the new drivers.

But when I use SIM Manager to read a phone book and then write to the sim card, nearly all the entries are doubled.

I've tried clearing all entries on the SIM, then writing the phone book=doubles.
Clearing all entries on the SIM, then just highlighting all entries and it still doubles them.

From what I see the only ones not doubled are the ones I just edited. today.

The display shows writing to SIM and goes from 1 to 100%. Then does it all over again a second time. doubling the entries.

Is there some process I should follow to prevent the data entry doubling? I don't see anything about this in the help menu.

The double entry seemed to be the phone book entries. I had about 90 entries, then maybe a 100 empty and then the phone book repeated itself. I just selected the second portion from 190 on and deleted it. Then also deleted the emtpy 100 locations as well. So all that's left is the desired 90 entries.

Works fine now.
