[rmaas]

I tried all options including reinstall the drivers after removing first all drivers but nothing helps, hopefully somebuddy knows a solution?

I have the same problem and I just used a different computer. I am interested to know what the other 2 methods are.

Sorry For Late Reply.:(
Make Sure You Have Allowed Hidden And System Protected Files To Be Shown. Please Go To C:\Windows\inf And Delete File INFCACHE.1. Then Reboot And Try Installing The Driver.

It should be pretty safe if you delete that file. See below

Yes You May Safely Delete It Cause Windows Recreates It Automatically. Infact Windows Recreates It Everytime A Driver Is Added. I Have Tried This Myself Last Month On Vista:D. Just Make Sure You Reboot Windows After Deleting It.

i am sorry to say no success ............

i have stared hating windows .............


i have found something in registry under

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Curr entVersion\DevicePath

%SystemRoot%\inf;E:\My Programs\Sony ericsson\Software updater\setup\drivers\USB;E:\My Programs\Sony ericsson\Software updater\setup\drivers\DSS-20-25\W2K_XP;C:\Program Files\Common Files\Teleca Shared\DCU-11;C:\Program Files\Common Files\Teleca Shared\DSS-20;C:\Program Files\Common Files\Teleca Shared\DSS-25


now i believe the problem lies here in above path

because before recovery of xp my SEUS was in E drive but it was not working so i downloaded setup again and installed it in c drive because it was not working properly when installed on its previous path e drive .........

OK... I got mine to work!

1. removed infcache.1 , that didn't fix my problem at first

2 and 3 below were done to remove previously installed (but failed) driver

2. removed ggsemc.sys from windows/system32 and similar directories
3. removed 2 .inf files that both contain ggsemc.sys , and the 2 corresponding .PNF files
(my problem may be that there are 2 .inf files for the same driver... but who knows)

4. started up device manager
5. connected phone with 'c' key depressed, 'Sonyericsson USB Flash' showed up in device manager, with a yellow exclamation mark. Double-clicked it and then "update driver"

That did it. I tried the driver clean-up steps several times before reading this thread, and it didn't work. So I do think the infcache.1 file is the key.

commando , maybe you want to try cleaning up the drivers and try what I did. Good luck.

Dear Friend,

I also have the same problem after reparing windows XP and tried the steps you discribed but after in the device manager trying to change driver first it asked to point to the new driver and selecting it in de map where i have the USB Flasdriver it come with the same error like the other people.

By the way in my flash driver map are to submaps with drivers amd64 and X86 wich one i have to take for my amd 64 X2 pc?

Hope there is another way to resolve this problem without installing windows clean.

Regard's
