you don't need drivers for this MP3 player, i own one, and you can put songs on it while it is charging, the issue is with the USB mode that the player is in. It has three settings for this. you can chhose between MTP, MSC, and auto detect. I have windows XP and for this i need to have it at MSC for it to work. You can changes this in the settings menu of the player, if you scroll all the way down to the bottom of the list.
