USB Broadband Modem : Device Unavailable

Hi! 3 July

We have a Dell Inspiron Notebook running Vista Business 32 bit.
We installed A Highspeed Broadband modem on on of the four USB ports.
The machine was restarted a couple of times to check that the installation
was correct. It functioned correctly.
However, the next day, it reported a #1717 error (Wrong Interface?), and
subsequently failed to connect on any of the ports: Device unavailable or
Device disconnected.

No amount of interchanging/reinstalling changed anything.

Under normal circumstances, the device installs itself as both a CDROM, and
as a Removable drive (with separate drive letters). In this case, only the
CDRom config is installed, and the removable drive is not.

In the registry, I find 8 instances of USBSTOR, all for the HUAWEI device.
ANd I think the count is increasing with each new attempt of the device to
reinstall itself.

Can I delete all the references? Before uninstalling the Broadband system or
after?

Mohan
