Help Hardware Installation Problem

[JColch]

I'm having this problem. When I plug my SG Note 2 via USB, it starts to install drivers. It actually installs several drivers, but then it gives me this message:

'A problem occurred during hardware installation. Your new hardware might not work properly'

Things I've tried:
1) Plug it to my friend's computer (it worked, no problems)
2) Plug it to all USB ports I have.
3) Plug with 'USB Debugging' ticked on and off. None of it helps.
4) Contacting live chat support. They couldn't solve it either.
and whatnot basically...

Some info:
I am in China right now (but I'm not Chinese), so I bought this phone which is original Korean version, which means all details are Korean and it was assembled in Korea. On back of my phone I see logo: "4G LTE". It's grey color and it works just perfectly, except this little problem

Help please?

P.S. I would post a picture of that error, but since I'm new on this forums it does not allow me to.

Its a known fact the Note 2 has the same USB interface as the S3

I bet you could try using the S3 USB Driver for your Carrier's Note2 phone

Links for the S3 USB Driver are here:

I had USB drivers installed, from the Samsung site for my original Note... had to uninstall, and install the Note 2 drivers for it to work. Afterwards, my Note 1 was still recognized by the Kies software.

install the Note 2 drivers for it to work

Where did you obtain the Note 2 USB drivers?

Note 2 page at Samsung site...I think.

But as I said I'm in China and I use none of those in list (ATT, Verizon, etc..)

What should I do?

Get a Chinese USB driver for the Galaxy S3, but use it with the Note2

Samsung has no USB drivers for OSX 10.8 Mountain Lion, so you are out of luck.

Well, not exactly what I wanted but at least something.
I found this software which is called "WanDouJia"

Just in case if someone will have a problem like me and he googles it, here you go buddy : ))

Download this, plug in your SG Note 2 and there you go. It's in Chinese though, but not hard to guess what is what.

Regards.
