Connected via USB. The phone says it is connected via USB. In Explorer, if I select Computer, I see Nokia Phone Browser together with all the other devices.
However, the Phone Browser doesn't do anything. It is just there.
The phone is also not listed as a device that can be removed and ejected.

Have you tried to get windows to re-detect the phone? If not; I would try deleting and or removing it from the listed devices; then try and get windows to search for and hopefully find it again and hopefully that will resolve the issue by reinstalling the correct driver(s) for it.

Other Info
Also have a pretty bad speaker setup which is a klipsch promedia 5.1 surround speaker setup with huge subwoofer and lg blu ray player/writer. Also a hp officejet pro 8600 plus wireless all in one and a logitech s7500 webcam.
Don't know why I didn't look at Device Manager first. :o
Re-installing the driver worked, thanks.
