Thread: [Q] [19 Feb] Help - Problem with Touchscreen and PC Connection

Hi,
I've a T Mobile HTC HD2 (Windows mobile 6.5), and the Touchscreen stopped responding at all recently. Soft reset set did not help and as per T Mob support the next step is to do a Hard Reset. However, I have to backup the data first - I've some email drafts/Texts that I cant lose. When I'm connecting the phone with my PC (Windows Vista), Windows Mobile Device Center (6.1.6995) is not recognizing it. I can access the sd card, and it is visible as 'Removable Disk (L)' L being the drive letter. In Device manager> Portable Devices, it is visible only as 'L:\'.
I did connect with earlier with the PC and Mobile Device Center worked. One of the possible reasons for not connecting now I found is "enable faster data synchronization" being checked. It might be checked for me, however can't check/change as the Touchscreen wont work. I re-installed WMDC, also tried with a couple of my friends PCs(Windows 7/WMDC & Windows XP/ActiveSync) - was the same behavior.
So any helps for this predicament (!) will be appreciated - specifically is there any other way to connect / change the value of enable faster data synchronization/ access e mail drafts (from PC)? My plan was to use MyMobiler if WMDC recognized it.
There was physical damage to the screen a few months back - but the phone was working fine till now.
TIA and Cheers !
