Here you people. This is the solution, without doing all the goofy stuff.
Plug remote in
Link to windows device center 6: (VISTA got rid of Activesync so you need to have windows device center 6 installed)
[Link: microsoft.com] Make sure remote stays AWAKE throughout the duration of the steps
-Then plug in the mx-980 (windows will try to automatically locate the drivers)
-Right click on “Computer” and select “Manage”
-Open Device Manager, select the Mobile Device – URC USB Sync MX
-Right click and select “Update Driver”
-Select Browse my computer for driver…
-In the Wizard, Select “pick from a list of devices”
-In the list, select (Mobile Devices)
-UNCHECK “show compatible hardware”
-Select Microsoft “Microsoft USB Sync”
After these steps it may require you to unplug and plug the unit in a few times.
Just thought everyone should know this works with a post-RC build of Windows 7 for the MX-950 remote. Good news!
