Device not recognized

Ok,

So I have spent the better part of the morning reading up on this issue here and other places and have yet to find a solution.

Hardware/OS
Vista 32bit & Mogul w/ 2.17.651.0 ROM

Background
Thursday the device worked great at work. Added a new program to the phone and all was working great. This weekend in anticipation of the upcoming ROM I hard reset my device. I came in the office this am, plugged in my device and get the Device not recognized.

I uninstalled WMDC, reinstalled and patched. Reconnected my device and it did nonthing, no beeps, no errors nothing.

I plugged it into another laptop here in the office also vista, and it beeped and showed as Device not recognized.

I replugged it in to my laptop and it beeped and came up un recognized.

I did the advanced options thing and that had no effect.

Any other ideas? Anyone know why this happens. I had this issue from time to time with my 6700 too and never did find a solution, just found that randomly it would work and not work.

I really want to update my rom as you can imagine so any help is greatly appreciated.

You are not the only one. I have the same issue with the Stock ROM. I have seen others with issues. I wonder if it is the Spring forward thing for activesync

The fix is to go to setting -connections - usb to pc and uncheck enable advanced network functionality

Unfortunately, I've done that. Doesn't help me either.

Yup, that didn't work for me either...will keep working on it. As a network admin by trade this kinda thing will honk me off till I find a solution....will definitely post when one is found.

Course I can always use a couple of nudges in the right direction....if anyone has had this issue and solved it please post away.

I am also having the exact same problem. I am using Activesync with XP and one day my phone just showed up as unrecognized. I have searched and searched and tried everything! Nothing works. Just out of curiosity what program did you install? I installed nueLED and then mine stopped working. I was thinking this might of had something to do with but I can't uninstall it so I will never know I suppose.

I have the same problem on VISTA 32 .... Damn I regret the day when I order this Sony Vaio with Vista only ..Now I can't even my cell phone to sync with my computer .... Microsoft sucks like always with so much incompatibility with own programs

Are you using the Mobile center with Vista? Active Sync will not work with Vista. I can't remember the program that is used but it isn't AS.
