sp5 vista drivers??

[Guest p2daz]

When i plug my SP5 into my vista laptop the device is recognised but no drivers can be found??

WMDC is installed but not working - maybe related?

I did discover tonight that if the phone is in bootloader mode then it's recognised and drivers are installed but when i bott phone back up and plug it in vista goes through the drivers search again?

Any ideas?

You need the device center to be working as this replaces Activesync.

Check you have the release version

i have the latest version 1.0 release. have uninstalled it and re-installed with no luck.

I connected once and the base drivers installed ok and i was able to browse the contents of my phone but still no joy with WMDC, once i'd un/re-installed no drivers were found on connection of phone even through windows update.

WMDC must see the phone being connected as it brings up an error stating that it has shut down although i never see a GUI.

I have done a hard reset but still no joy :)

Apart from this i NOW-eventually have everything else on my laptop up and running its just this damn WMDC.
