I had the A808 (you too?) which was around 2007 and it was still only Sonic Stage until the next model. I think you can drag and drop as an external storage, but it will not recognize unless loaded via Sonic Stage - I loathed Sonic Stage. From memory there was a third-party software that was able to load music, can't remember the name. Possibly someone still has a disc image they could share.

Good question, but there used to be a compatibility setting that allowed for the installation of older programs. I don't know if it is still available.

Thanks @Hinomotocho i managed to install the driver and run MP3 file manager V2 by switching the compatibility to windows vista service pack 2
