Thank you, Mosdan! It made my day!

This is the site where I could trace the patch: http://www.olympusamerica.com/cpg_section/cpg_support_downloads.asp?id=1272&os=w
and this is the link to the patch (for Windows XP).

Same problem - VN-600PC voice recorded would not transfer files under Windows XP. Running the file provided by Olympus from the best solution above fixed the problem. Why do Olympus make it SO difficult to find this patch ...

Try detecting new hardware; the drivers weren't installed properly. Windows should find the drivers and install them for you automatically.

I can't find the drivers for my Olympus Digital voice recorder VN-2000PC. What can I do? I can't tranfers my audio files to my PC.

Do you need the software/drivers for the VN-2000PC or the VN-2100PC? The software for the VN-2100PC is available here: http://www.olympusamerica.com/cpg_section/cpg_support_downloads.asp?id=1270 . Select your OS and you'll find the software.

The VN-2000PC doesn't connect to the computer via a USB port. To transfer your files to a computer, connect the earphone jack to the line In (blue) jack of the computer with a 3.5mm to 3.5 mm audio patch cable. Use a program like Audacity to record the audio track during playback. Make sure to set the Audio input to Line In. (In Windows 7, click Start > Control Panel > Hardware and Sound. Under Sound, click Manage Audio Devices. Then select the Recording tab and set the input device.) Then set the recording device in the software as well. Click the Record button in the software and then start the play back on your VN-2000PC. You should see a flat line for a bit then see a wave form start. If the line stays flat, you haven't set the Line In device properly.

I hope this helps.

Olympus VN-2100 Voice Recorder

vn-2100 does not have that capability...the vn-2100pc does... to download from vn-2100, you will need a compaticord to put in the ear on the recorder and the mic of the computer or device and transfer that way

Copy Files to a CD

You need to loacte the files on the unit and get them to your hard drive via the transfer function. Once on your machine use any cd (like Nero) creating program to back them up to a black cd. You have to make sure your computer has a cd burner.
