Help Help! My computer isn't recognizing my EVO

[LegacyNY]

Hey,

I'm attempting to access my SD card and every time i connect my phone and choose disk drive to my comp it won't work. It will charge and that is all. When I go to My Computer it doesn't recognize anything as a "disc drive" like the little booklet says. Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated!

Did your computer recognize it before?

No I just exchanged this Evo. So its brand new.

I had this same problem but think I fixed it. Problem is I wont be able to give definitive info on how to fix it.

I installed "autostarts" to try and stop some of the BS that auto starts on the phone. After I did this I started getting the above problem.

I went back into "autostarts" and enabled some items that I had disabled, this fixed it. Also the pc recognized the EVO after I unchecked the USB debug option under Settings>Applications>Development>USB Debugging.

so check Settings>Applications>Development>USB Debugging and ensure its unchecked, that might be it.

This happened to me last night. I ended up rebooting the phone and PC then the drive started to appear again (Win 7).

ok after a little digging it seems its the USB debugging that might have caused the issue.
