Nokia PC Suite problems

3 replies · 3,249 views · Started 28 September 2004

I'm having big problems with the PC suite application for my 6600. If I have it enabled to startup with windows (the default) it lengthens the time windows takes to startup considerably and sometimes causes it to freeze completely. I've tried disabling it from running at startup using Msconfig and then just launching the app seperately but that didn't work (app didn't start). Even when I get it to run it refuses to sync my contacts with Outlook XP saying 'Error opening device Nokia 6600'. Does anyone have any ideas with either of these problems? Will it help if I download and install the latest beta version of the M router app? How do I install that replacing the current version of Mrouter? Are there any other apps out there that can sync my PC and 6600? By the way, I'm running Windows XP SP2.

Thanks for any ideas.

My case is different, I use a Blue tooth device in my usb port and using Widcomm bluetooth software to runs it. Now when I install pc suite, it cant detect my bluetooth when it does, if i click on it then it says there is another application using it. But the thing is that Widcomm bluetooth software is the main software running that devices. How am I supposed to disable it and let nokia runs it? Please help

my mate installed older version of widd's drivers and it sorted his pcsuite problems. Formatting my PC did it for me. lol
