    This doesn’t show Tusb3410 when data cable is attached in Usb… It shows something else…. Hence no new port is created in Windows Vista

  4. VPTCL says:

    Software/drivers can easily be installed by CD provided by VPTCL but its not gonna work with Vista. I have installed it more than twice, modem and everything seems fine (in device manager) but when i click on connect or if i manually create a new connection for VPTCL its useless :( if anybody has success story please share the procedure.

    Hi,

    Can i install Huawei on SP3?

  9. Iftikhar Ali says:

    Madam! I neither have Vfone nor tried it ….. but I wanna mention the very basic thing you forgot here and that is this forced unverified driver installation is only possible in Vista/Win7 x86 (32 bit) editions.
    Vista/Win7 x64 (64 bit) won’t let you install any unverified drivers at all. So your instructions are totally become false there.

    So please, from now on if you ever post anything, go with first getting full information …. though I must appreciate that you as a girl took step to post something valuable to users (specific users).
