I have just posted this to the motorola forum and on second thoughts I think that this may be a generic hardware (modem) problem. any ideas I have looked at all the threads regarding getting my sons v220 to talk to our PC. but none seems to cover my particular problem so here goes and I hope there are some experts around. I have downloaded MPT and the live updates I have downloaded all the p2k drivers and followed the advice from these forums. When I get to the part where I add in the USB cable, xp (sp2) thinks about it for a while and then I get "windows was unable to install the modem" error. I have searched for this and it has an article on microsoft suggesting a missing registry item. (I followed the advice from the ms article (I have checked out the microsoft site and it suggests that a registry entry is missing. (Article id 883356) http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=883356) I used regedit and discovered that all the records the proposed solution highlighted were actually there (although I deleted, restarted, and re-added just for good measure). I have also updated the motherboard drivers and tried again. I have unintslled and re-installed MPT and still the same problem. Also using the latest drivers for the phone but it never gets as far as using them. I am still getting the same error and am now at a loss, Any suggestions ?
