Mobile device not recognised.

After the first inistall on my new Vista Home Premium I trird to sync my Asus
636 pocket pc 5.
The first time I plugged it in Vista installed some drivers but the only
part that the sync centre would recognise was the music part with Media
Player 11.
After a little research I found that I need Windows Mobile Device Centre
which after downloading and installing quickly found my PDA and everything
was lovely.

Unfortunately after closing everything down for the night the next morning
Vista wouoldn't recognise the PDA at all and kept saying that there was a
problem with the device.
I have tried uninstalling the Vista drivers but now it won't reinstall the
drivers it was happy too only the day before.

Any help would be wonderful
Thanks

Re: Mobile device not recognised.

You need the Windows Mobile Device Center software:

This replaces ActiveSync for mobile devices in Vista.
