Hi!

I'm having problems with installing usb flash drivers for k800. I had read the tutorials, and did what should work, but it simply doesn't.

I'm using Vista x64. When I try to install drivers manually, I get a note that there is no drivers in specified folder.
And then the phone turns on (still holding C), and connects as a flash drive.

Need help.

Tryed that. When it comes to the part when i connect the phone nothing happens. I'll try again.
Should the phone turn on after some time while holding C?

I just tryed again with SE Update Service. I followed the instructions but nothing again.
The phone turned on after a while. Windows reported that the installation of the driver was unsuccessful.
I'll now try the drivers from emma site. Will report.

Edit:

Nothing again.



I'll now try installing SP1 for Vista. Maybe something will change.

I had a simular problem, but mine Windows called it SEMCBOOT Download.
go to:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Sony Ericsson\Update Service\setup\drivers Or where your SEUS is installed. and there extract "USBFlashDriver.zip", remove or rename your "xxx_usb_signed_drivers" folder so windows cant find it directly
Then point the driver installation to the extracted "USBFlashDriver" folder, then it shuld install correctly!
What the fix on my Vista x64 (sp1).

I successfully installed the drivers by holding 2 and 5 when connecting the phone, and USB flash driver from SEUS.
