Can't get Vista WMDC working with Axim X50V (2003 SE OS)

[ppcinfo]

I've tried everything to get my Axim X50v (with the 2003 SE OS) to work with the Windows Mobile Device Center on my new Vista Desktop PC for syncing Outlook 2003 data. When I insert my Axim in the connected cradle, the Desktop system says it can't find the necessary drivers. I then select the "search online" option, but it comes up with driver not found see manufacturer of the device.e

Of course, Dell doesn't have anything new for the X50v to work with Vista. I've also tried uninstalling WMDC and reinstalling the WMDC version 6 available on the Microsoft download site, but that has the same problem.

Has anybody run into this problem, and if so, what was the solution?

Thanks,

Hello,

I have a Windows Vista Laptop in HP dv9000 and it has worked perfectly since day one, no problems whatsover.

All I did was plug it in. Not much help to you I know, but hope for you that they do work If you can find why yours will not work.

Take Care, Locutus

I just "went Vista" and it appears to be working fine for me; however, I went with Outlook 2007 on the Vista PC.

Have you seen and read this?
