Root Driver problems?!?!

So my nexus 7 wont load on my Windows 7 64-bit computer. I used the rootkit 1.5 to root it and install the drivers. No issues.
The next day I plugged it in and the computer wont recognize it at all or it pops up for 2 seconds.
WTF.
Tried to unstall and reinstall using PDAnet. No luck. Tried reboots, no luck. What now...Im running out of options and its so annoying.
Also tried a root kit forund on rootzwiki...the 2.0 one? No luck....pissed. Help!!!!
 
What does it say when the drivers fail to load or install? There is normally an error box that appears and tells you what the problem was. If you aren't seeing that, please check the Device Manager and see if there is something there that is also not loaded.

If after checking the Device Manager you DO find an issue (that yellow ! is annoying), select it and update the driver and point it toward the folder where you have the Rootkit installed (there should be a folder called Drivers in there). It should look for and update the driver from there.

If you continue to have issues, try tossing it into debugging mode. Reboot your PC and device and then see if they play nice once everything has settled.

Good luck.
