Problem with Vista

bsjoiner · #1 (**permalink**) 05-01-2007, 04:37 PM

I cannot for the life of me get my 6700 to sync with Vista. I have searched this forum and many others but have not found a solution. I have no problem getting it to sync with AS 4.5 in XP but Vista Ultimate only recognizes it as a media or storage device and not a WM5 device. I am running the clean 3.5 ROM and Vista Ultimate. I have Microsoft Live One Care as my antivirus and have allowed the activesync protocol in the firewall. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

I cannot believe that was all it took. Thank you BRIGHTEDGE for your help. I thought that since i have windows mobility cenetr on my computer that would be ok but there were some new driver patches that i needed and it worked just fine.

This worked for me as well. Thank you! When Iwnet out to the MS site I searched for this and could not find it.
