The Windows Vista software needs to be downloaded separately, preferably BEFORE inserting the device for the first time. The software that's on the 'virtual CD-ROM' does not work on Windows Vista.

To obtain the latest version of the software, visit http://www.vodafone.nl/zakelijk/mobiel_werken/Mobiel_werken_met_laptop/Support/Algemeen, but you can also download a local copy (from within Nikhef) from http://www.nikhef.nl/grid/ndpf/files/VodafoneMC/.
