Android ADB USB Driver Issue

So I was messing around with my scroll and I had some issues with the usb driver installation under Windows 7 64bit because it wasn't finding a compatible driver for my device.  I managed to get it going by editing the android_winusb.inf file that comes in the driver package.  Here's the steps I took:

1. Open Device Manager

2. Right click on your "unknown" Android device and click properties. (My tablet was called "Android Eclaire")

3. Click on the details tab then select Hardware Ids in the drop down box.

4. Open android_winusb.inf in notepad and scroll down to the [Google.NTamd64] section.

5. Look for this section :

;Google NexusOne
%SingleAdbInterface%        = USB_Install, USB\VID_18D1&PID_0D02
%CompositeAdbInterface%     = USB_Install, USB\VID_18D1&PID_0D02&MI_01

6. Change these two lines to reflect your PID and VID listed in the Hardware Ids box that you should still have open somewhere in the background, then save and close android_winusb.inf

7. Now install the driver as normal

Android!

Got myself one of the Storage Options Scroll Tablet's with Android 2.1 on it.

It's mainly for my wife to use for email and such while I'm on the computer but I can see myself creating custom ROMs for it, already "rooted" it as the Android crowd would say. There's also a couple of little bugs (like the upside down app bug) that need sorted so hopefully get that done too.

Stumbled across a good forum for Scroll users too:

I'll probably use this blog to release bits an pieces and maybe tutorialize some of my work.
