[Q] Driver Issues

[gatorbyte]

I've searched and not found anyone with my exact issue so please forgive if this redundant.
I am unlocked and s-off with CWM v6.0.4.5. I've been on CM11 nightlies and unable to get my pc to see the phone(vista 32bit). I flashed back to CM10.2 and could then see the phone in windows. I wanted to install CM11 again with a clean start so I moved Rom and gapps to the pc and wiped and formated EVERYTHING in CWM intending to then sideload CM. Now I cannot get my pc to see the phone at all. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling HTC sync, tried different usb cables and ports and tried a different computer(windows 7 64bit) all to no avail.
Are there any tricks that can be done with drivers to make the pc see the phone or is there any other way for me to get files back on the phone. Any help is greatly appreciated.

In settings goto storage. Then open the menu in storage (either the 3 dot menu or the hardware button if remapped) and you will be able to pick USB COMPUTER CONNECTION

Thanks for the reply. I probably should have clarified that there is not a bootable rom on the device. The device has the bootloader and recovery and nothing else on it at all. To farther clarify, my pc does see my device as HTC6435LVW, it simply won't find the drivers even though they are installed and when I type "adb devices" in a command prompt it doesn't find my phone. Also tried putting the phone into fastboot and searching for "fastboot devices" and nothing comes up that way either.

Your probably going to laugh. But download PDANet and it will install adb needs to push files to your phone.

THANK YOU! THANK YOU!!!!!! I've been sitting with a dead phone for days trying to figure this out. You saved me having to go buy another phone.

It did! As soon as I installed pdanet adb was able to see my phone. Sideloaded CM11 with no issues. Thanks again.
