First off, sorry if I put this in the wrong section, I did not see one for Windows tablets just windows phones. Well anyway I just got a generic Windows Tablet (This one:http://www.weiku.com/products/13079175/10_inch_tablet_pc.html) It came pre-loaded with Windows 7. Seeing as it's not an ideal OS for a tablet I opted for Windows 8.1. I created a boot USB and did my installation, only to find that the finished product has no audio or network card adapter drivers. So after a full night of scouring the internet I could not find the drivers I needed. So I guess what I'm asking is does anyone here know where to get the drivers or where to find any universal drivers? I've searched and searched. But to no avail. You guys are all I really have to turn to. So if you can help leave me a reply. Thanks everyone.

My Samsung Intercept wont connect to my computer, everytime I plug it in, I get USB device not recognized, how can I get it to be recognized? Im running android 2.2.1, and my computer is running Windows 7 Ultimate 64-Bit
I tried posting a link but the spam prevention police apparently wont let me post links until I have 8 posts. So I'll just quote:
First I tried to use Win 7′s XP mode, which was a total failure. The Windows stock Virtual PC cannot control any devices, it just reads them as belonging to the real computer. After a lot of searching I found the open source Oracle Virtual Box, which is Windows Virtual PC on crack. With Virtual Box, you can mount any number of operating systems to play around with. As a bonus it has the capability to see external devices as its own. All you need is an install disk for your operating system of choice. I had gotten the Intercept to work with both XP and 7 32 bit, so I chose to install a Win 7 32 virtual machine.
For all the specifics on how to install a virtual operating system in Virtual Box, read the user manual. Its large and technical, but skimming the first two chapters should tell you all you need to know to get started. The short version, you set up a partition for your virtual machine, you then “boot” the virtual machine with the install disk of your operating system of choice. You then go through all the normal installation steps, and bingo-bango you now have a virtual copy of XP/7/whatever.
Here is where things get hazy. I was under the impression that the virtual machine would be where I would see the phone. However for mysterious reasons, suddenly the phone now gives me the option to mount and my main Windows 7 64 has no problem letting me into the phones drive!
I don’t know why. I can close the virtual machine and still have access when I plug in. I wish I knew what the heck was going on and how a virtual 32 bit 7 convinced a real 64 bit 7 that the Intercept is OK, but I do not. All I know is that Virtual Box somehow worked for me, perhaps it can work for you. Other than that Virtual Box is a nifty tool I should have had long ago. Good luck!
UPDATE: I wrote this a couple months ago and while it did work, I have a funny feeling that its all just pure luck as to if Windows will bother to recognize the phone. I have computers it works fine on and some that refuse to see the phone no matter what I do. The whole key is to just keep trying, something will work eventually. If all else fails get an app like SwiFTP and move on with your life.

Thank you very much for this information, I will get to trying the Virtual Box and the SwiFTP, thank you again.
The above information you gave still didnt work :/, do you or anyone else know what I could do to fix?
Hello, I wanted to say that the whole process for the computer to see the Samsung Intercept is buggy to say the least. I have a good knowledge base of computers as I work as a Desktop Support technician for the past 10 years. I read many posts and replies. None seem to be concrete on a resolution. I tried the usual methods. I downloaded the Samsung SWUpdate+Patch. I downloaded the Sprint USB Modem drivers from Samsung's Web site. I also downloaded the custom files for the Kernel and custom recovery. The first thing I tried on all four of my computers was to install the Samsung USB Modem drivers. The second thing I did was to install the SWUpate+Patch software. My first test computer was a Compaq D500 desktop. Windows XP-SP3 with USB 1.0 ports and a USB 2.0. I placed my phone in USB Debugguing Mode. I then powered off my Phone. I held down the three magic keys to get the phone in "Download" mode. I checked Add/Remove Programs both programs were installed- Samsung USB Modem Driver and the SWUpdate. I first opened the Samsung SWUpdate program. I followed the onscreen instructions of the Samsung program. The program could not communicate with the phone. Bottom right corner of the program said disconneted. I tried chaning the Port Settings in the program to COM1, COM2, etc. All said disconnected. I tried opening the Samsung program several times. Restarting the phone, unplugging the battery etc. I also tried using a different USB cable besides the one that came with the phone. No communication. I tried the same process on another PC which had Win7Pro 32Bit SP1. Almost same results, but I had the computer install these three devices when I opened the Samsung program and connected my phone:Android UMS, S3C6410 Android ADB, CDC Abstract Control Model (ACM) I thought I was good. Status still Disconnected. I restarted the computer tried the whole process again. This time the computer gave me three messages of "Device not Recognized." So I tried a few more different was to get the drivers into Device Manager nothing worked. I even tried that PDA2net app that app wouldn't see the phone wither. Then I looked into the PDA2net directory and saw some drivers .INFs that I thought might work.. I would get a little farther, but then the driver seemed to install and partially recognize the devices, but then a message said that it could start "Error 10" So I tried another computer. Windows 7-64bit. I knew this was going to be a long shot..and it was.. Samsung USB Modem Driver not supported on this version of Windows. So I tried my work computer Win7Enterprise 32Bit. Same issues Device not recognized three or four times. I tried the two USB cables for my phone the OEM one and Aftermarket. No luck. So I had my old trusty Dell D600 laptop. WinXP-SP3 32bit USB 1.0. I installed the Samsung USB Modem driver then the Samsung SWUpate app. I got my Recover.tar file dropped into the Bin dir. I opened the Samsung SWUpdate app and holy **** the damn program was able to connect to my phone I couldn't believe it.. I wanted to take a screen shot of it working just so I could make sure it wasn't B.S. I used my laptop with an Aftermarket USB Cable. I'm not sure if it's a Data USB cable or just a charging cable. I don't think there is two different cables as I've read many times on different fourms. I'm not sure why my laptop works with the phone. When my phone did finally connect it connected on COM3. So maybe it's a port setting/IRQ. I also turned off my Firewall each time just incase it was blocking communication.
If anyone has any questions please feel free to reply. I will try to help in any way possible. I wanted to say thanks to XDA Forum and to Super-6-1 on YouTube..you guys Helped Me more than you know.!!!!!
hey XDAs
received my omnia 7 on last friday and it´s everything i could´ve asked for!
but now i got a little problem...
at first, some facts: i´m on a macbook pro and i use the windows phone 7 connector (tried win 7 and zune via boot camp, too).
i tried to unlock with 2 different trys, a) with chevron and b) with some dialer code to get in the "diagnosis" menu........both tries failed!
but after b) i got a new "diagnosis" tile in my apps menu
now i have the problem, that my pc can´t recognize the phone anymore...win 7 and zune say "no phone connected" and the wp7 connector (mac) doesn´t do anything (should start automatically, when phone is plugged in) but i get a "new network device found" message where i need to configure the new device.
(in addition, i THINK that my phone doesn´t even load the battery through the usb port, so maybe my cable is broken?)
maybe i can´t connect my phone because of the "diagnosis" menu?? and how can i remove this app??? maybe i should do a factory reset?
so what´s the problem here??? even if i can´t do the unlock, it sucks not being able to put music, videos or even updates on my omnia ;(
really nobody?
I don't know anything about using Macs with a WP7, but on windows, you need yo make sure you have the latest Zune. Also, if you have hacked to allow tethering, you have also turned off the Zune sync function.

The problem is you aren't actually running windows, it's still a virtual system. The USB controls are still through your mac. You will not be able to connect your win7 phone to a mac, that is not possible, and your wasting your time even attempting it. Sell the mac and buy a laptop, you will be happier.

If he's using VMWare fusion and accessing a Win7 guest via OSX host, then you're right.
However, if he's dual-booting Win7 through Boot Camp, then it should still work.
Samsung phones, like LG phones, have a way of switching the USB mode to allow Zune or allow tethering (the latter killed by Mango).
Monkeytown will have to follow the instructions for changing the USB mode back to the one that allows for Zune (on LG phones, it's called MS COMPOSITE).
i´m running a dual boot system, no vmware...
and microsoft released the wp7 connector themselves for mac, so it SHOULD work :/
i think i never saw an option of tethering in the settings menu, so how can i do that? i mean, change the usb mode
/e: i managed to get another omnia 7, and it works like a charm via my usb cable and mac connector
so....i would like to see the instructions that i should follow -.-
Hi,
Im new to windows mobile, i have titan 7, when i connect to computer via usb nothing comes up, didn't installed any drivers becuase i search the google for usb drivers for this but didn't get any so please help.
thx

Windows Mobile doesn't really exit anymore, first of all. You have Windows Phone 7 (no, not "Windows 7 Phone" like some people say, and yes, the branding is stupid). Despite the similar name it's a very different product from WinMo, although a bit of the low-level code is shared.
Your PC *should* have automatically installed the WP7 driver when you connected the phone, but all it would have done in that case is tell you to then install the Zune software, which is used for syncing with the phone. You can get Zune at http://zune.net, and it should include the needed drivers.
Note that some things, like USB Mass Storage access to the phone's filesystem, just aren't normally possible with WP7.
So. I have spent about an hour searching now, and cant seem to find anyone else who is having this problem (which seems peculiar to me...) but anyways, ive got my girlfriends stock, non-rooted big ol mama jama of a clone for the p8+ (or max, maybe?) and when i connect it to my microsoft surface 3 running windows 10, it doesn't recognize it AT ALL. I have usb debugging turned on the device, and on my computer i turned off the check for digitally signed drivers, I have the latest version of android studio installed, with adb, fastboot, the whole shebang, I have downloaded several drivers, up to (but not limited to)pdanet and the ultimate driver mtk kit that is usually found alongside the skipsoft anddroid toolkit. I cant seem to figurer this beyotch out, it will charge the device but literally nothing more. neither the device nor the computer can tell the other one exists.
any tips?
HiSuite installed?
NOPE! thank yoy kind sir, lets see whsat she does
Hi all,
I'd be grateful for any advice you might have.
I did a clean installation of Windows 10 on my Prestigio tablet (PMP810TD3G) as the device had become a bit slower. Unfortunately, I didn't know that installing Windows on a tablet is not that easy as it is on a desktop PC. In fact, the installation itself went fine, but my tablet is a desktop PC now as all tablet features (touch screen, brightness, battery indicator etc.) are missing. I believe it must be a driver issue and that's why I'm here. Yes, I didn't backup my drivers before as I'd thought Windows would just find it itself.
I've tried everything - uninstalling uknown devices in device manager, automatic search for drivers, Windows update, looking for drivers all over the Internet, using 3rd party driver update apps, contacting Prestigio, contacting other service centres. None of those's helped. That's why I think the only possibility (as I was told that Prestigio company in fact no longer exists) for me is to find somebody who has the same tablet. Does anybody to happen to have the same (or similar - 32 GB, without 3G/Wi-Fi) device and could send me the drivers?
Any advice will be highly appreciated!
Many thanks,
