I have a Samsung Fascinate Galaxy phone. I didn't have to install any
drivers in Windows 7. I connected it and Windows found whatever
driver it needed and installed.
However, there can be problems with USB devices if the Eject devices is not used. The status gets corrupted in Windows and when you connect a device it's either not detected or does not connect. In these cases, when you connect the device, an "unknown device" entry will appear in the USB listing in the Device Manager. In these cases leave the device connected and then "uninstall" the unknown device in the Device Manager (do not check the box to uninstall
drivers). Then disconnect the device, restart the PC and after Windows starts, connect the device and a new device will be detected and installed.
