chiradip 0 Report post Posted May 7, 2009 The driver issue occured in a Vista Machine but that was with the printer. HP printer was not detected by the machine, which was supposed to be detected automatically as per HP. The only solution I tried that to install the latest service pack (Vista SP1). When the machine rebooted after installation without any further intervention the machine accepted the printer and for last four months the machine is running fine. You also may try to install the latest updates and service packs, probably the problem may get resolved. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

city02 63 Report post Posted May 8, 2009 i had problems getting my broadband [HSD] usb to work on my HP laptop with vista WWE customer care spent 2 hours trying to get it to work and even uninstalled the data stick for the old [narrowband] data stick without any luck after detecting the modem, i got it working by simply running in XP compatibility mode now it works fine on my vista laptop...

@mitJ@in 256 Report post Posted May 8, 2009 One of my known person have same Dell Inspiron 1525 with Vista Home Premium 32 Bits. I sucessfully installed Huawei 168c device driver in his laptop. And Zeemo, I think I have grasped your problem, and I know the cause and solution. Cause - You must be installing the Setup from .exe file by exploring the Huawei Ec168c Mass Storage Drive. Am I right ? Solution -First uninstalle any installation of this modem if avaialble in laptop then, Dont run .exe setup file by exploring the USB Mass Storage Drive, Instead Click Autorun, Now it will pick the drivers for sure.
