 *Vista and XP create a new folder <code>C:\Windows\System32\DriverStore\FileRepository\android_winusb.inf_xxxx</code>
 If there are any errors, refer the <code>C:\Windows\inf\setupapi.app.log</code> or, if VisualStudio is installed  the <code>C:\Windows\inf\setupapi.dev.log</code>. Delete the created directory. In some cases you have to generate a new androidwinusb86.cat - file. Refer the [http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa741204(VS.85).aspx#cat_how MSDN] for further details.
