Charge your Blackberry on any PC
As you might have tried, charging a Blackberry phone on PC requires installation of RIM drivers, which of course come only with whole download of desktop manager, which weights at heavy 90 megabytes!
We love to provide solutions for our readers, and as we did with our automated searcher for latest version of firmware/software for your blackberry model here (we also suggest you read the upgrading guide), we also found a solution for USB charging on PC with no Blackberry desktop manager installed…
As a solution to this nuisance, we offer you download of USB only driver for Blackberry. This will allow your PC to properly recognize the phone and charge it thru USB connection. Read the full article on charging blackberry phone thru USB and find a download link here.
If you want a cleaner method, that also works in XP, Vista and other Windows versions, try this:
1. connect your blackberry to your PC
2. start internet explorer, and go to windowsupdate.microsoft.com
3. choose Custom, and then expand Hardware section and choose Blackberry USB driver.
This will install proper Blackberry driver (and latest version), on any Windows computer! Blackberry will then be charged correctly.
