Hi there Guys
I am using Windows vista with with Windows Mobile device center installed on it. However when I connect my mobile to the pc a message comes up and says device malfunctioned.
When I change the usb port it works but it does not connect with the WMDC.
I thought Vista might be the problem and Used an XP computer with Active Sync on it but It does not work.
So what Shall I do please reply quickly

Help why my activesync cant connect with my PPC?
Thanks
Did you use xp sp2 and activesync 4?
I used to have ActiveSync 4.0 problems too... Device manager detected the device but failed to install driver.
In my case it started working once I swaped the cradle's USB connector to another USB jack with the PDA in the cradle.
Windows XP found the "new" device and installed properly this time... Now I can Synch fine through USB.
Also some say that you need to change something on you PPC, so go to Start/Settings/Conenctions/Network Cards and select "Remote-NDIS Host" and change it to "Server-assigned IP address" and then Ok, Ok, Ok...
I hope this helps you...

Dear All
I have a very strange problem here...i was using the Jwright WM6 rom till this morning with no sccuess in getting it to connect to my Vista laptop by all means...the only thing i could do is to connect to my desktop pc which has Windows XP & it connects succefully...so i thaught it's something related to the crossbow not being compatible with vista WMDC
Till this morning a friend came to me with his Universal running Jwright 1.90.96 WM5 to install a program so i connected to the Vista WMDC & it worked like a charm...so i downgraded mine to the same WM5 version he is running & i was shocked when it didn't connect & kept trying to connect till it gave me red error sign with no explanation
I used the same USB port, the same original cable on the same laptop under the same windows user...
Any explanation for that????!!!
I really need to sync with my vista laptop as it's my main PC at both work & home...
Thanks All
Hi, anyone got a w800 windows mobile?
i just got one off ebay.
it seems to work ok but i cant get it to connect to my pc.
I tried to use activesync but vista uses windows media devicecentre, I installed it then connected the w800 by usb cable, vista detected it and installed a driver for an UNKNOWN DEVICE. when I opened windows device centre it says "not connected".
i tryed to use vista s device sync and it said there is no devices to sync to?? even though the w800 is connected via cable...
anu idea,s what i,m doing wrong?
(apart from using a cect)..lol
In vista s device manager it says " windows based device" but device cant operate because of ( code 10) when I try check for solution it says cant load device driver.
Hi all, I run Vista x64 Ultimate and connect my devices with Windows Mobile Device Center (WMDC) I recently dug my O2 Xda Exec out but its stuck at the boot screen, i.e. says serial at the top then v1.00 at the bottom, if I connect the USB cable the word 'Serial' changes to USB
I have unchecked the 'Allow USB Connections' in WMDC and the PC does it's USB Bing Bong sound as you plug in the xda to the USB, unfortunately when using Mtty I get no USB option, consequently I can't input the commands and continue with the install. I have also tried using the Uni_exitbootloader.exe, again this states there is no USB option. I was trying to get either the Ranju v77 rom or the original xda exec rom installed.
I have checked the USB ports using other devices and all function ok, so what's going wrong?
Going to try from another machine today, its running XP pro so I should have more luck!
**SOLVED**
Problem solved.
Advice: Don't use Vista x64 to update these PDA's
The solution was to go to my XP system and upgrade from there, installed original Xda_Exec_Upgrade_v1.30.162.exe then once that was ok I tried out Ranju_v77_WM61_19900_19900_1_0_2.exe.
my issue now is wireless encryption, apparently I only have up to WEP and I use WPA, will do a search but if anyone knows how to deal with this can you post.
