Pocket PC Not Recognized

I am unable to get Vista to recognize my Pocket PC (UTStarcom 6700). When I
plug it in, it asks for a device driver (which I do not have). I tried going
into the list of drivers in Vista and picking Windows Mobile, but that did
not work. So now I am stuck with an unknown device in Device Manager -
PocketPC USB Sync. Any ideas?
Build 5384
 
I have a 6700 (audiovox for Sprint) and I noticed in device manager, there
was a listing for but the driver was not functioning. I uninstalled that
from device manager, and then searched for new hardware and it worked.
 
Sorry for the multiple posts. Microsoft's website for this newsgroup has some
issues.

I will be trying it on another PC tonight, which I imagine will work. I have
uninstalled it multiple times, as well as tried it on 4 different USB ports.
 
I have the same Pocket PC just a different carrier PPC-6700. Vista did not
ask for drivers when I plugged my in. Did XP ask for drivers? Have you needed
to install them before?

I have the same problem with a QTEK S100 with Windows Mobile 2003.

No drivers exist (never did). Just always required Microsoft ActiveSync.

The patch that came out today,still dosent resolve my problem.
 
I am running Windows Mobile 5, maybe it is an issue with older OS'.

How exactly do I get the patch? I did a Windows Update and there was
nothing and my Axim still will not connect.

When you open Windows Update you have to click check for updates.

Did that. Didn't find any at all.

OK, got it working. I didn't realize I had to connect with USB before it
would let me connect with Bluetooth.

Syncs nicely with Outlook 2007

with Vista, mine PDA also not found now

I've got a Samsung i730 with WM5. Worked great with ActiveSync for the last
year.

Though Mobile Device Center popped up, it won't connect. I hear the USB
connect sound when plugging in the PDA, but nothing else. Anyone got ideas on
this? (no drivers were requested)
 
I realize the problem now. When adding my Motorola headset or i730, Vista is
asking for a Bluetooth Peripheral Device driver. This is new in Vista. XP
needed no device drivers for bluetooth.

For 2 devices added, Device Manager is showing 5 Devices that need drivers.

Does anyone out here know why a Pocket PC would need a driver or where to
get it.
