That's not constructive. Vista works just fine, it's just the 64 bit that it doesn't function on. I installed it on my other machine with Vista 32 bit. It took me quite a few tries to get it to work, including soft resets, rebooting the actual PC, and wiggling the data cable.

At the end it took two consecutive boots of the phone being detected. I had the USB option in WMDC *OFF* the entire time. At 100% it told me it failed, but my version numbers check out fine. I'd call it successful.

It seems to be pretty random for everyone, so keep trying as long as the phone is responsive. The app has to detect the phone more or less on its own both times in order for it to work, and the sync center can't be connected/detecting for it to work.

Good luck.
