Tethering Problem - UNABLE to SYNC to PC...

SYNC-electomy definition = (unable to sync TP2 to Windows 7 PC after spending 3 days f#@&ing around with it, ready to go postal, losing massive amounts of hair, need help)

Okay, guys, I was still unable to "connect" to my PC, so no sync. This all started when I tried to install PocketQuicken for PPC and neither my TP2 or my PC reacted well, so I unloaded it, but was left with Sync Problems...

I tethered the cdma TP2 (seems to be working fine now with the latest Energy.RHODCDMA.29017.Sense2.5.Mar.30.7z) to an identical Toshiba Laptop to mine (a friend and I bought them together on clearance from BB) and it worked flawlessly:
  • Windows Mobile Device Center (WMDC) appeared...
  • PC prompted me that the phone was tethered
  • asked if I wanted to set up WMDC to sync with the device.
So, now I know it's a problem with my PC, so I...
  • Removed my device settings from WMDC on my laptop
  • Uninstalled the WMDC software from Control Panel
  • Tethered my TP2 to MY laptop===>>
RESULTS:
Nothing! I hear the tone like I'm connecting a USB device, but no green screen of WMDC or any prompts to connect specific devices, set profiles, activesync--zip.

Can anyone please help me resolve this?

It's obviously something on my PC as the troubleshoot worked great with the exact same laptop PC, owned by my friend...
TIA
