My windows vista doesn't recognize N95 when connected as mass storage drive.
When i connect the phone, vista looks for drivers that doesn't found...
Any hint or solution?
I have the last version of pc suite installed.

Apart from the error message the PC suite gives you.

I'm using Vista Ultimate - I put the phone in "Data Transfer" mode .. plug it in - my PC is a pretty standard Shuttle .. it just plain works.

So sadly looks like your PC .. have you tried a few different ports? They aren't necessarily equal. Have you tried it on another PC?

I use and recommend TuneUp - there's a new version for vista - this will fix "windows" issues .. but to me it sounds like a hardware/driver issue.

Ok but WHICH driver? 😊

I think its part of the PC Suite Install .. that means 6.83 (the vista version)

the 3 drivers installed are

PCCSWpdDriver.dll
WUDFRd.sys
WudfUpdate_01005.dll

the N95 should appear under "Portable Devices" in Control Panel .. device manager

good luck!
