Default For Vista

I figured out a solution to my above post regarding this process in Vista. I just created an autorun.inf file on the root K:/ (blackberry assigned drive). I typed in:

[autorun]
open=SyncToy.exe
icon=SyncToyico.ico

And then I saved it as autorun.inf and copied it to the K:/

I included a picture of the new menu that pops up when I connect my blackberry as an attachment.

So that was it. I followed all the synctoy related instructions as described above (installed synctoy, paired folders, and then copied all synctoy related files to the K:/). They only take up about 2 mb. I'm going to mark them all as hidden and hopefully they won't ever be seen again.

I'm pretty sure you can edit the above three lines to do the automatic, updated version as of January 2009. I haven't tried it though.

I should mention I plugged in my blackberry on my girlfriend's XP computer and this did not work. Probably has to do with the "Tweaking" that must be done in the original post.

Hope it works! I pretty much no nothing about this stuff...
