USB connection success, Vista!

This has been driving me nuts since I got the phone. It would almost connect to my machine then just bog down and fail. Someone mentioned using a better USB cable and I tried it out of desperation. It WORKS! Apparently the USB cable that ships with the Epic 4G is kinda crappy. I plugged in the brand new cable and it just plain worked. :D

Best $7 at newegg to date!
 
Welcome to Android Forums, Tom.

Your discovery about the cable qualifies as a "tip," so I've moved your thread to the Epic 4G Tips and Tricks area for you. ;)
 
Yes the stock cable is HORRIBLE. I tested with a kindle cable which worked. I bought a replacement cable off monoprice for like $4 after shipping.
