Vista and the RUU

[Xero]

Hey guys, just curious if anyone's managed to figure out a way to get the RUU to work with Vista.. I've searched around a good amount and I'm coming to the conclusion that nobody has, so far. I saw one post blaming WMDC (Windows Mobile Device Center) as the culprit, but that doesn't make any sense, since the RUU works up until the Wizard gets to its own RUU (tri-color) screen, at which point it should have no connection to WMDC anyway. This leads me to believe it's an incompatibility with the PC-side RUU and Vista. Any clues?

I am also searching for a solution to that, but no success yet. I think it is because of the new drivers that Vista uses. I am now running build 5744, and I think it still worked on 5600, where some elder drivers were used...

I remember I had it working with the 4008 (I think) build, but not RC1 & RC2. I'm using RTM (6000) now and it's hosed pretty bad. I suspect you're correct with the drivers, I know I had to find a driver edited slightly for the modem link to work.. everything is changed around just enough to make nothing work completely. Hope there's a solution soon.
