Ok so I needed a new deskphone, and thought why not go for something thats windows live messenger compatible.

I did a bit of research and the Uniden Win1200 has all of the features im looking for in a phone, So I ordered it. About 2 weeks of waiting on back order and it turns up in all its shiny glory, I unpack it and to my astoundment, it doesnt come with any software, I read the manual (once in a while I do this) it Claims "plug and play" So i plug it in, get a popup to install hardware, everything goes smooth (or so I thought) I get the explorer popup with the old "what do you want windows to do" I select allow this phone to make calls and tick the remember option box, I notice there is two phone icons in the system tray, one is the windows live messenger device manager saying "no devices" the other is the phone, which disapears after 30 sec.

So i hit the PC call button on the phone and it says"phone application not available"

I have tried restarting, changing usb ports, removing the usb port from device manager restarting, replugging, stand on one leg, removing the livecall.exe and device manager from windows firewall and re-adding, nothing changes and Im considering returning the thing as there is little or no support topics on the net regarding this.. Any ideas bar beating it into peices with the 4lb mallet vodafone sent me as a promotional thing

HELP pls kthxbai!

FYI my system is a p4 3.0 with 1.5gb ram, patched to the bejeesus with every ms patch under the sun
I have also tried repairing the windows live messenger install
