[SOLVED]Help with ADB, I've tried everything I can think of.

---

Guys I'm at my wits end. I'm about to give up. I'm trying to get adb working on the nook here on my work computer. I can't for the life of me get it to work. I had no problem on my laptop, but then again I think I caught it before windows installed anything.

I've been using "usbdeview" to uninstall rogue drivers, trying to reel in the problem. However every time I go into device manager, it try's to install "Android ADB interface" which I think means its assigning the wrong driver to it. It should be "Android Composite ADB Interface", no? I know thats what it is on my laptop.

Anybody have any last ditch efforts? I should note that adb works perfectly fine on my Aria on this same machine. I love ADB, hate the setup though.

*****EDIT: Working on different usb port*********

You aren't alone, m8.
I used to have no problem with ADB over USB. But after re-formatting my laptop, I just couldn't get it to work, no matter what I did. I gave up
I'd tried wireless ADB, everybody said it's so easy, me? Couldn't ever get it to work. Gave it also.
At least, for now, I wouldn't think I need it.

I'm now convinced its not driver related. There is something holding my computer back from talking to it. But I'm 99% the right drivers are installed. Mounting disks works fine and it identifies like my android phone does, ADB just won't talk to it.

Try unchecking and rechecking Debugging mode...

Tried that many times. Just for fun I ran the easy adb executable on another machine here, THEN plugged in my nook to it. ADB worked perfect. I'm frustrated, but I really want to figure this thing out. (btw, it identifies with the exact same drivers on both machines)

EDIT: Don't know why or how, but for some reason switching usb ports (which I swear I've done before) worked!!!!!!! It now recognizes and can push/pull/install over adb (usb).

Enough said.

Love me some Ubuntu, but CMD prompt > Terminal every time.

If you don't mind, can you provide the link to where you downloaded the driver?
Thanks

I used the "combo" pack which installed the drivers and a stripped version of ADB to C: (redundant since I already had ADB installed).

Thanks audio,
I'll give it another try.
