Mine also a Win7 64 bit box and, after installing adb drivers, I haven't had a single issue when connecting my phone to the pc.

Screw updating. I have been trying for couple of hours to get PC companion to see my phone. and every single time it's error this error that. It simply won't find the god damn phone!
what bullshit is this? I am really miffed. a brand new phone and a sofware issue right from the bat. sigh
Same problem here. I'm on both W7 x64 and Vista x64, never got PC Companion to work with my phone since I bought my Arc S.

thanks i will give it a go
right there seems to be two issues here which is causing these problems.
one is that something is forcing the phones to reload the drivers again when the drivers have been successfully reinstalled once you insert it into usb slot on computer creating an endliess loop of failed installations.
secondly the pc companions that comes preinstalled from the phone and the one on the net are causing a huge software conflict of some sorts.
it's takes me 20-30 minutes just to get the phone to be recognised and then when i take out the phone it once again tries to reinstall and boom it becomes unrecognissable yet again.
This sad situation means i have to reinstall the drivers everytime i plug in my phone just to access the storage medium. sigh
Yes you heard me right. reinstall everytime you plug in your phone into your computer. It's really hard being a sony fan sometimes.
sony what the **** are your software engineers doing? how come my x10 works so flawlessly even with the bug ridden pc companion and yet the flagship phone is not? |

update on the situation.
i have come up with a temp solution. exhanged my phone. stayed with the old firmware preinstalled on the phone. everytime i connect the phone to compu, i make sure the phone tries to install pc companion even though it's already on my comp.
the phone then loads up the drivers and it connects perfectly. i know it is sad to have to reload the driver every single time but hey it's better than nothing.
now at least i can enjoy the phone in all t's glory.
at last. God damn you sony. get better software engineers |

Not a Sony problem.
Your laptop locks it. Better sort the cr..p on your PC.
I have two laptops, one 4 year old one on Vista 32bit, second new Win7 64 Bit.
Both work with my X S perfectly as well as with two other  devices - Arc and X10 mini.
In two ways - with PC Companion and as external drive on the PC.
So mate, it's your PC not mistake.
Stop complaining and sort the sh..t on your computer.
