calibre cannot connect to prs 700

[joezg]

Hi...

I have Calibre 0.6.5 installed on Vista Home Premium and when I try to copy books to Sony prs-700 device, I get message "Cannot send: No device is connected".
I looked for a solution on Google and this forum and found similar problems, but I didn't find a solution.

I had AVG Anti-virus free edition installed, but I uninstalled it to no success. I also ended most of the processes.

This is the log of calibre-debug program:

c:\>calibre-debug -d

Help would be appreciated and I'm sorry if the solution exists somewhere where I didn't look.

This indicates some sort of problemwith your windows /WMI installation. Unfortunately, I am not enough of a windows guru to know what the problem may be.

Thank you very much... At least I know where to look at...
