I have bought a G1 from a friend and he has only given a USB cable. I have tried connecting the phone to my laptop (Windows 7) but its not coming up in My Computer. The laptop makes a noise when the USB is connected but no Autoplay window opens up and nothing is there on the phone to access the phone. I have tried using different cables and the same things.....

I found it in under Devices and Printer but it is called Android Phone and when I right click it the only options are Create Shortcut, Troubleshoot and Properties so I can't go in to the phone. I have gone through Properties and updated the driver but still nothing and I can't get in......

Please could you help urgently because I want to access my phone through the laptop. Also, I am running on Android 1.6 so no roots on the phone and I have recently Factory reset it when I got the phone..............
