go to your device manager and try updating the drivers from there.

what OS are you using?

Yes get the moto drivers installed and that should help. But i'm not sure cause I'm tethered as we speak with no moto drivers. A paradox.....

Does your laptop have wireless? If so just go with out a usb its always easier for me.

that didnt do anything at all.

Sounds to me like you need a tethering app. I have used pdanet which is free...but after the trial period you can't go to any secure sites. Which means no facebook, online banking or anything like that. Usbtether is an option as I recall. What phone do you have?

I have found that it has been a much more enjoyable experience using barnacle or wifi tether after I rooted my phone. But that's not for everyone.

Correct info -- are you trying to tether or just access the files? What are you trying to do so I can answer you properly?
