Re: Pocket PC on Vista?

That area of Windows Vista is still being worked on, but it should work in a
future build though, so its best you wait and try the next release, but
drivers should be required, but I guess for the time being, you have to use
your existing drivers.

Re: Pocket PC on Vista?

If it helps, I've found Windows Mobile 2003 SE works intermittently, however
Windows Mobile 5 based Pocket PC's seem to sync and do everything right. Not
sure if this is because of lack of functionality in the Mobility Center or
due to lack of drivers, but the whole point of the Mobility Center is that
you don't need to keep plugging in extra drivers for the damn thing to sync!

Re: Pocket PC on Vista?

Well, try downloading and installing ActiveSync - you may have to run the
setup in compatibility mode with XP SP2 however.
