I tend to know more about the lower level rather than the UI parts, but I've
heard this kind of behaviour can happen if you had a beta version and
installed RTM on top of it. Can you uninstall WMDC from control panel and
re-download/install it and see if that helps?

I figured out a way to make the stupid thing give an error code. Although
the error seems like a blank to me.
I can make it throw an error if I go into Network and Sharing Center and
click on the Windows Mobile Device Center link in the bottom left area.
The error is:
Faulting application wmdc.exe, version 6.0.6783.0, time stamp 0x45b7b290,
faulting module unknown, version 0.0.0.0, time stamp 0x00000000, exception
code 0xc0000005, fault offset 0x00000000, process id 0x14ec, application
start time 0x01c74e85a9095172.

I have an upgrade instal of Vista Ultimate. I upgraded fro XP PRO where I
originally had activesync 3.8.
My device is an Audiovox SMT5600. It is set up to sync with Exchange
server as well as with this computer.
Originally when I installed the WMDC RTM I did it by following the
instructions on the download page. I plugged in the device, then ran the
install.
Right away this failed. It originally said theat it couldn't install the
driver for the Windows Mobile Device. After that first install, in the
Device Manager it showed 2 devices. One was and is called "Mobile
Devices->SmartPhone USB Sync" and the other was called I think "Portable
Devices->Uknown Portable Device". The second one I'm trying to remember
because it's not there anymore. The Portable device one ALWAYS showed an
Exclamation and listed a Code 10 that it wasn't working, dirver couldn't
be loaded, etc.
From the VERY FIRST installation, the actual WMDC program listed in the
Start Menu would not and will not open. When I click it, the mouse
working
icon spins once then nothing happens. No error, nothing in the event log
that I can see. It just ignores me basically. This happens with or
without
the phone plugged in. the program has never run even once. It doesn't ask
me to configure the phone, etc.
I uninstalled and reinstalled the software about a dozen times and
eventually, the portable device driver message went away, and now at
least
when I plug the phone in the device manager LOOKS clean.
Can someone please tell me how the heck to get this stupid program to
work?
I saw a post earlier in this news group that explained how to use a
"wmdc.exe.config" etc files with XML in them to create log files but this
causes an error mssage when clicking on WMDC which at least is something
new.
