PC doesn't recognize my Epic

I had this problem in October, half the time when I'd plug the phone into my PC, I'd get an "Unrecognized Hardware" error on my USB bus. Thought that by now Samsung would have fixed the drivers? I'm running 64bit Windows 7. Now I cant get the machine to recognize the phone at all? Using the USB ports on the back of the case (which was suggested last time)doesn't help either?

Anyone else have this problem?

Paul

Re: PC doesn't recognize my Epic

Yea, that was it. For some reason it just didn't like the USB port on the back, which is weird because all the advise I've gotten has those as the one with the best chances of working?

Anyway, I'm up and running thanks for your help though!

What is up with the phone demanding Just certain USB ports? Is this too bizarre or what?
