When you plug it in did you choose "usb connected / turn on usb storage" from the pull down menu at the top of your galaxy?
You may need to search for "samsung galaxy s drivers" online. I had to do that for one of the xp computers at work but it just plugged in and worked right away on my win7 machine at home. As mentioned, I think installing kies may also install the drivers for. |
