I had the same problem some time back and reported it to Headland Tech.
They have a new version of the drivers available (as of a few days ago)
on their BBS (415-656-0503) that are supposed to work under CVW.  The
drivers are in a file called win30.zip (I think) under the Misc. download
section.

I haven't yet had a chance to try the new drivers personally, so I can't
vouch for them.
