Can no longer mount G1 on PC

[Retnuh66]

Unplug the phone from your computer.
Go to your Device Manager and see if it says "ADB." If so, click on it. It should drop down and say "HTC Dream." If it does, then right-click it and click "Properties" and then go to the "Drivers" tab and click "Uninstall"

It will ask you if you want to delete the driver software from your computer, check the box to delete the software and then continue. The plug your phone back in. Your computer should automatically install the USB Mass Storage Device drivers, and once it finishes, mount your SD card via the notification and enjoy your files.

EDIT: Oh, and Windows may or may not tell you that your device is malfunctioning every time you plug it in, if it does just ignore it.

G1 not connecting to computer
I have bought a G1 from a friend and he has only given a USB cable. I have tried connecting the phone to my computer (Windows 7) but its not coming up in My Computer. The computer makes a noise when the USB is connected but no Autoplay window opens up and nothing is there on the phone to access the phone. I have tried using different cables and the same things.....

I found it in under Devices and Printer but it is called Android Phone and when I right click it the only options are Create Shortcut, Troubleshoot and Properties so I can't go in to the phone. I have gone through Properties and updated the driver but still nothing and I can't get in......

Please could you help urgently because I want to access my phone through the computer. Also, I am running on Android 1.6 so no roots on the phone and I have recently Factory reset it when I got the phone..............
