The start menu and nickel use the same module to connect to the pc. Therefore, it should work with the start menu too. One difference is that the start menu sends different identification data. Could be that windows is blocking the usb connection when receiving the start menu identification data for some reason. If you like you can try the following. Open .kobo\kbmenu\usb\enable_usb.sh and replace

Code:
VERSION=0.0.0
with
Code:
VERSION=0.0.1
If you are lucky, windows will establish a new usb connection.

You have to use a unix-style editor, cf. this page.
