    I am totally stumped here, Tried everything I can think of.

    Have un-installed and re-installed. Open Kies with Admin rights.

    Tried as JJE described above. Tried a different usb wire and usb port and still nothing.

    Still getting this message:
    Device Driver software was not successfully installed.

    Please consult your device manufacturer for assistance in getting this device installed.

    Bluetooth peripheral device Driver not found

    Which I don't understand, as I am not using bluetooth. Bluetooth on the phone is not even turned on.

    Think I am gonna need to ask in the shop or phone Samsung.

    Thanks to everyone who has responded.

    Still can't get it phone connected to Kies, phoned Samsung yesterday, so said I had to take it to local repair centre.

    Took it to CPW this morning, which is my local repair centre. Just checked online tracking and it appears they can't fix the problem either and they are having to send it to their central repair centre.
