Hey guys. first of all i would like to say that this is the best phone ive owned so Far!!:D

but for somereason when i try to connect my phone to my computer (windows 7 64bit Home Premium)it doesnt get recognized.:confused:

I can access mass storage, and i already installed the drivers. i even install kies. But the problem that i have is that when i toggle USB Debugging my computer pops up with a message saying USB Device Not Recognized. How can i fix this? i really want to figure it out because i want to make my Captivate be able to install 3rd party apps.

Any help is great Thank You Guys!!:)

Are you plugging your phone into the USB port in the rear of the computer? If not try this.

You should read up in the development section. You can get sideloading allong with many other goodies all through your phone without the use of a computer. That being said make sure you can recognize your phone on your PC before you go crazy
