I've got Windows Vista installed on my laptop and haven't seen this problem. Do you have Windows Mobile Device Center installed? You'll need that. Here's the link:

Good luck. The 800w is the only device I could not get to work with Vista. I had three 800's.

Really?? i've had 2, both worked fine on vista 32 bit(i hear the bugs with 64bit have been fixed too) so idk?? however, i did realize when i install s2u2, my phone would not stay connected, so i uninstaled and thats fixed it.

I've never had a problem with connecting mine between my Vista laptop and XP desktop. I wonder if its something installed on your pc?

And is this the VibrantRedGT I see so much of at TreoCentral.com?

Of course. I have a Touch Pro (primary) and 700wx (back up and outside) so all the forums are here in one place. The 800 forums are light and need more people to post instead of just TC.

I agree, but I don't think this is the first place people think of when they think Treo. I've been doing as much as I can to build this place up. I started out at PPCGeeks and have a deep respect for the people here, thats why I tend to do most of my posting here rather than else where.

I see we signed up pretty close together. I will send some people over this way to get the boards moving.

Have you tried the Palm USB Update?

Sounds like a plan. :thumbleft:

Oh, man. I didn't even think about that. Good catch sanmanc.

Thanks dannzeman. I had to read the threads a couple of times 'cause I figured someone would have mentioned it. I guess we just don't see or hear about it as much anymore.

Re: HELP...With setting up TREO800W
 

Every time I do a hard reset I always forget to install this one and I can't figure out why I have troubles syncing between multiple pc's with vista and xp. Then I install this and it seems to fix it. Go figure ](*,)

I just did a hard reset last weekend and had the same. That's probably the only reason I remembered it.
