turn off your phone, press and hold volume down while connecting the USB cable to the phone and do not release until drivers are downloaded.

You can try it using the "hard" way but first of all let me clear out first that i'm not responsible for any damage caused to your Phone or your Windows PC. Proceed with your own risk!

Also i use the x64 version of Windows 7. (Mind that i already have Service Pack 1 installed).

Now, if you wanna try it out follow the instructions carefully.


  1. Create a Restore Point so you can recover your Computer.
  2. Disconnect any MTP Devices connected on your Computer, your Phone is included too.
  3. Download this .zip file called "system32".
  4. Open the zip file and paste the folder "system32" into your Windows Folder which can be found at "Computer > C:" Drive.
  5. First, if it tells you to overwrite any of these files you pasted on the Windows folder DO NOT.
  6. Connect your Phone to your Computer, if it fails to find the Driver, disconnect your Phone and repeat the 4 step and overwrite any files you are getting asked.

These are the files that my Phone is using.

If all else fails restore your PC using the Restore Point you created earlier even if it doesn't show any errors. If you don't it might cause problems in the future.

You might get a blue screen of death during the paste procedure, just restart and keep going on.
