Solution On Windows 7 32 & 64 Bit Download the Windows Mobile Device Center for "VISTA". I have tested both on Windows 7 (86 and 64) and they work perfectly. Remember, download the Vista version. Hope this helps you guys.
Not sure if this has been addressed yet, but I cant install Mobile Device Centre 6.1. Each time I have downloaded it it fails to run. I have tried downloading drvupdate-x86.exe then running it in Vista compatability mode. I get the UAC pop up then a brief Windows Mobility Centre has stopped working before it disappears.
Any ideas?? Running Windows 7 32bit.
Currently I cant use my XDA with my laptop. If I leave my USB to PC settings with Enable Advanced network functionality ticked I get a Generic RNDIS device failed to install - unticked I get a generic serial device which also fails to install.
Works fine on my Vista (32bit) install........???
Device Centre Error Report - incase it helps.
My laptop was able to see the phone (XDA) via bluetooth so I thought I'd give that a go. It paired ok with a passkey but then failed (again) to install a driver. Below is the trouble shooting report.
