Trying to set up a XP x64 machine but i cant have a internet connection with it because i dont have regular internet like others.Even no WI-FI!(please dont ask why).So i have a copy of RNDIS  driver that works on XP 32 bit.I tried it on xp x64 and it failed to install.Anyways my problem is that i need an Android RNDIS driver that works on XP x64

Thanks

The driver is already present on XP, but the INF file to set it up is only included out-of-the-box on Vista+. Copy this to Notepad, name the file wceisvista.inf and save to C:\Windows\INF:

; no sys copyfiles - the sys files are already in place

[Strings]
Microsoft             = "Microsoft Corporation"
WindowsCeDevice       = "Remote NDIS based Internet Sharing Device"

Then try to get Device Manager to install it. If all goes well, it'll only complain about unsigned driver.

Thank You very Much!

Another way to add the RNDIS driver is to install e.g. Active Sync 4.5
After installing WinXP has detected a new device RNDIS as Windows Mobile-based Internet Sharing Device

or, manually extract the .msi file in CMD:

msiexec /a "activesync_4.5.msi"

and indicate the path to the driver when connecting a smartphone and enabling USB tethering.

 

P.S. WceIsVista.INF adds a device called Remote NDIS based Internet Sharing Device
