I had installed several 3rd party apps and figured that one of them was causing problems so I figured it was time to hard reset and start over.

I was able to sync again after that so I decided to be a little more cautious about installing apps. Only installed the critical ones that I really use and got rid of the crap that I was just playing with or checking out. No problems for several days and then all of sudden, having problems again without installing anything new. This time around though I only seem to have problems with Vista, XP seems to be ok. Weird thing is sometimes it will sync and sometimes it won't. It will even come and go frequently while leaving the cable connected continously.

I know Vista has some USB connection problems but I am not having problems with any other USB device. I got to believe that something on the Touch is causing the dropouts.

One other thing that I will add, even during the times that I can not make a USB connection between Vista and Touch the pc still recognizes that something got plugged in and beeps, it just doesn't know what device. Also the Touch does always charge off the USB even though there is no connection showing up in device manager.

Any thoughts on what might be causing this?
