Connecting from Vista to CE with WMDC


To connect an ADS device running Win CE 5.0 or 4.2 to a computer running Windows Vista, follow the steps below:

  • Power up the device
  • Connect the device to your computer with a USB cable A to B
  • You will see a " found new hardware" screen
       If you had already installed/attempted installing a driver, you can right-click Computer, choose Manage and go to Device Manager. If the device appears under Mobile Devices, then use the update device driver utility.
  • Select the option to locate and install software
  • Click on Continue on the Windows permission request screen
  • Select Browse my computer for drivers software
  • Select Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my PC
  • Select Show all devices
  • Select Mobile devices and click Next
  • Clear the checkbox that says Show compatible hardware.
  • In the Manufacturer column choose Microsoft, and in the Model column choose Microsoft USB Sync and click Next
  • You should then see a Windows mobile device center screen where you can select either Setup your device, or Connect without setting up your device. A successful connection would be indicated by a green checkbox and the word Connected on this screen
