Author Windows (XP) Update for Sony Ericsson GC82
John Navas

2006-08-18, 4:33 am

Optional hardware update: Probably need to have the GC82 inserted (with
SIM) before staring Windows Update to see this update, but the GC82
probably shouldn't be in use (connected) during the update (see below).

Microsoft info:

Sony Ericsson - Modems - Sony Ericsson GC82 EGPRS Modem
Sony Ericsson Modems sofware update released in June, 2006

What's changed: Only apparent difference is the installation of a new
device, per Device Manager:

Smart card readers
Sony Ericsson SIM Card Reader

There's no apparent use for this -- anyone?

Install Problem: The first time I attempted this upgrade I was
connected to the Internet with the GC82 using the Sony Ericsson Wireless
Manager. The install of the update hung, and I eventually had to
forceably shut down my computer (ThinkPad T41). After restart of the
computer the Sony Ericsson Wireless Manager no longer worked properly --
I had to uninstall it, re-install it; and then re-install the update
using Windows Update with the GC82 inserted (with SIM) but not
connected, whereupon the update completed successfully, followed by
detection and installation of the SIM Card.Reader.
