Vista and MIO A201 - problems with connection

[djc1610]

I have just had to reinstall Vista Home Premium on my laptop.

I have downloaded the latest version of Tomtom Home and installed it on the laptop. I have also loaded the USB drivers for the A291 from the CD supplied with the device onto the laptop.

When I plug in or unplug the A201 using the USB cable I get the usual donk - donk from the speakers but no other recognition of the device.

Tomtom Home loads and runs OK but does not recognise the A201.

Can anyone offer help?

I have searched for "A201" plus other relevant words but I always ended up with loads of pages that appear to have no relevance whatsoever with my search. I never found anything that could help me with this problem.

HI
I also had the same problems but worked round it by downloading
windows mobile and accessing the device via this.

hope this helps
