When I tried to install it, it failed and now when I try again it says

system32\wdcoinstaller01005.dll is either not designed to run windows or it contains an error. Try installing the program using the original installation media or contact your system administrator or the software vendor for support
you dont install anything. you extract the android sdk into the c:\. then you copy the two files mention in the thread to c:\windows\system32. you then go to start>run>cmd(enter). type adb devices. ADB is ALL COMMAND LINE. THERE IS NO PROGRAM YOU INSTALL
what two files?

~sigh~ are you sure you read how to do this at all?
adb.exe and AdbWinApi.dll are the two files that need to go to system32
and then install the drivers from your usb_driver folder from the SDK. Use the AMD one if you're using a 64bit OS or the Intel one for 32bit OS.
Okay but I get a problem at
Plug in your phone through USB and DO NOT MOUNT IT!!!!!
Your computer should see a new device and try to install Android 1.0 driver (If it doesnt, scroll down to the "Im not getting a notification of Android ADB when i plug in my USB" section)
Let it load
Once it cant find them select "Install drivers from my pc"
The drivers you need are in the Android SDK 1.5r2 folder (C:\android-sdk-windows-1.5_r2\usb_driver)
Depending on your OS pick x86 or amd64
You ADB Android Device should now be installed! Good Job
I get a problem at this part when I click install drivers from my pc it pops up an error

System Restore and try it again.
that has nothing to do with adb. that means your driver installer that is resident in windows is corrupted. unless you can system restore to a point at which it was working, the only real fix is going to be a new windows install. not entirely sure how one breaks the library for installing device drivers, but hey, thats what you've got.
Ok the problem was solved when I used my other computer.
The cyanogen rom 4.2.3 has USB tethering support, but I can not get it to work, mainly because of missing information/documentation.
In 'settings' 'wireless controls' there is a nice 'Internet tethering' option to switch it on. When I switch that on then my Windows XP PC shows an unknown device 'Andriod Phone' and would like to install drivers for it. Where can I get these drivers from ?
Markus
I would also like to know how the usb tethering works for a mac as well. Didnt find any information on that. Thanks in advance.
You may need to get the drivers from the Android SDK, but with regards to USB tethering, your phone should be recognised as an NDIS based network device and installed automatically by Windows. Not sure about XP, but it installs automatically on Vista and 7
Under Ubuntu Linux (from an end-user perspective), when a G1 is connected with USB tethering enabled, network manager connects as if the phone were a standard, ethernet connection.

I have the Android SDK (1.6r1) and I point the driver install wizard at the usb_driver directory when he wants to install the device. Despite this the 'Found new Hardware' Wizard come up with 'Cannot install this Hardware'.

For xp you have to install drivers from htc sync software. Just google 'htc sync'. Should have been asked in q&a.
Nothing happens on Mac OS X 10.5.8 neither on 10.6.1

Im trying to get this to work also
I couldn't get it to work on my Windows XP SP2 computer at work. I get a code 10.
Guys, don't forget to use search! I've seen these issues brought up in at least 3 or 4 threads, and tons of posts.

If you're running windows XP the driver isn't included on your computer. Some people have installed HTC Sync to get the drivers, personally I got them from this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=445436
I can confirm that the driver from that post works, I am using tethering with my laptop right now to write this post!

The search doesnt always give you what your lookin for if you dont word it a certain way man................
I think im gonna need a step by step.... I got the file... the computer recognizes the device.... But it doesn't register as a connection....
To everyone that is having problems tethering:
I was having the same issues. At first I wasn't able to get it to install, and then it would just keep saying the device couldn't start.
i found a very simple solution. I went into device manager, uninstalled all of my usb ports, and restarted my computer.
When it restarted, it automatically installed the usb drivers, and the tethering has worked ever since.
I could not get this to work either, finally after 3 days of messing with this on my work pc, I got it to work. First download htc sync from here http://www.htc.com/uk/SupportViewNews.aspx?dl_id=631&news_id=270 then unzip and install to your pc. Next tick on the option to usb tether while the phone is plugged in. It will say found Android phone Sdk or something like that. I did this on my xp pc at work that had no htc drivers previously installed. Next I went to my device manager and under network adapters you will see the yellow exclamation point, right click on that and update driver, 1st install from a specific location, 2nd Don't search I will choose driver to install. 3rd Have disk, 4th browse to C/program files/htc/htc driver/driver files/xp_86x then hit open and click ok. It might give a "stop warning" ignore it and continue. When its done installing you should be ready to go.....

I'm so frustrated with this whole process. I've done every step you've outlined, and I still get a code 10 - cannot start the driver. And I still don't have USB tethering. What am I doing wrong?

That's your problem then. Yeah update to sp3 and you will be good. I promise.
I'm running into the same tethering trouble, but appear to meet all the criteria mentioned in this thread and other threads i've come across. the bottom line is i can connect with ADB access and mount my phone's SD card via the usb connection, but tethering doesn't work under several versions of Cyanogen on my laptop. currently I have CM 4.2.12.2 on my rooted Dream. I have windows SP3 installed (installed it twice because problem persisted). I've uninstalled all the USB ports per an above post, rebooted and plugged my phone in. The laptop reinstalls the USB ports, and finds the phone as an "ADB Interface" named "HTC Dream Composite ADB Interface". I can update the drivers with the google SDK USB drivers which makes the device an "Android Phone" named "Android Composite ADB Interface" instead. With either set of drivers installed, once I go to Settings on my phone and enable tethering, the device under windows goes away and instead i get yellow question mark "Other Devices" named Android Phone. I can try to force it to use the same USB drivers but it won't install them.
With tethering turned off, i can successfully type "adp devices" on my laptop console and see that my phone is there. once i turn tethering on, the same command shows no devices.
The Dream works with tethering just fine on my windows pc and shows up as a "Network adapter" named "Windows Mobile-based Internet Sharing Device".
My laptop is a compac presario in case that matters. what do i need to do on it to make tethering work?
just found the solution. a lot of posts were talking about installing microsoft active sync. sounded pointless considering it's an android phone, but it ends up being that the drivers for "windows mobile-based internet sharing device" are part of the active sync installation. i installed active sync, plugged in my phone, enabled tethering and then the laptop installed the correct drivers and it all worked without a hitch. hope this helps others!

First off sorry I'm sure flammage is coming but I've looked and looked through google and through xda my last ditch effort is to make a post.
I can not get windows 7 to recognize my I've downloaded the latest SDK with usb drivers but each time I try and update drivers I get "windows has determined he driver software for your device is update. Please help me
Go look for the PDANet drivers. You may have to actually install PDANet, but it's painless. Install those drivers, and adb will work for you.
This is mentioned in various stickies and other guides around the board.
This option didn't work please help pda install but didn't overwrite the driver
You need to reboot and hit f8 I believe, then choose the option to allow installation of unsigned drivers. Then try to reinstall the drivers when you boot
Download an application called "USBdeview", which will let you view/modify the drivers for all devices regardless of whether they're attached or not. Find all the drivers related to Android, HTC, NexusOne, and adb, and delete them. Then install pdanet, and don't connect your phone until it instructs you to.
Windows 7 does not allow the installation of unsigned drivers unless the option is disabled on boot

I'm 95% sure that's only for the 64-bit version of Windows - Vista had the same requirement.
There are ways around it, such as using the Driver Signature Enforcement Overrider application (DSEO), or just manually configuring your computer to run in test/debugging mode.
At any rate, I don't think that you should have any issues with the PDANet drivers, as I installed them on my Win 7 Pro x64 OS before I had disabled driver signing (I did that later to screw with some homemade video drivers).
More detailed instructions on getting the drivers working are available here.

DSEO is a pretty nifty utility for sure. Provides easy one-click (okay, a few clicks, actually) access to disabling the driver signature enforcement - and even an easy way to eliminate the "Test Mode" watermark that would appear in the bottom-right of the desktop while operating in Test Mode.
There are other methods to bypass the signature enforcement without turning on Test Mode, but I've found that to be the best option. Other approaches use a boot-time hook to basically insert the F8 (and other keys as appropriate - down, down, enter or something like that) keystrokes to "automanually" disable driver signature enforcement for that boot. Any third-party application that accesses things that early in the boot process makes me a bit nervous!
Is there any way to install JUST the USB driver for 64-bit Windows (7) so I can use ADB to install and test apps on the phone, without having HTC Sync sink its hooks into Windows and try to endlessly sync things I don't want to have sync'ed (because I only use the Hero for testing apps to make sure they work on older phones)?
For future reference, does the Hero use the same USB drivers as newer phones (like the Evo3D), or did HTC switch chipsets somewhere along the line and change the driver used by newer phones?
Yes, I posted this yesterday but people didn't like... I wanted to do exactly this.So here is the way I proceeded:
I've done this for a desireHD but if HTCSync 3 is for your phone, it has to work.
Hi, here is an easy way to only install the drivers from the HTCSync package.
Double clic on setup_3.0.5579.exe (dwnld from HTC support site)
Choose the language and clic next (stop when it list the things to install: air,...)
Go to c:/user/yourname/AppData/Local/Temp
Order the files by date and choose the last folder created (so the temp folder were the files were extracted for the full package install)
Delete all *.prq except the ones for the drivers (3 files, 2 if you choose between x86 and x64)
Clic next in the HTCSync install box.
All deleted prq will be 'installed' but in fact no
Check... only drivers are installed
nb: do this if you don't have a sense ROM and don't need HTCSync of course.
Hope this will help
Edit: if you only use adb, you can dwnld the Android SDK, open it with 7zip and just extract ADB (and needed dll). No need to install the full SDK if you don't plan to make any dev. Personaly I'm only using ADB and Fastboot
Edit2: forget previous Edit... you develop apps... don't know regarding your last question but it seems there is only 2 drivers in the package x86 and x64. So I guess all device covered by HTCSync 3 share the same driver. This is just my idea, if someone knows for sure, add your comment.
update
Hey guys there's an updated version of HTC Sync.
When you go to install that, it tells you that it needs other stuff installed before it can continue (C++ redistributable, etc), two of these are the drivers you need.
Proceed with the pre-requisite installation then cancel the main installation and voila'! All is good.

Try the SDK drivers:
https://developer.android.com/sdk/win-usb.html
You need to download the sdk, but when you launch it, just uncheck everything besides the USB Drivers.

The deletion trick still works on newer versions of Sync, however, you should also edit config file (found in the same folder) and delete all the prerequisites except for BMP drivers and Driver installer. Click Next, wait for drivers to be installed and hit Cancel when it asks for confirmation to install Sync itself.
I managed to install it on both 32 and 64-bit windows 8

Windows will install adb drivers automatically once the phone is connected (depending on what mode).
Give time and let the "Windows Device Manager" do the rest.
If you want to try to unlock bootloader, thats another story...

Try to let the Windows re-install the correct drivers.
Go to the Control Panel and open Device Manager (your device should be connected in charge mode only and debbuging ON),
you should see something like "ADB Interface" and "Android Sooner Single ADB Interface", right-click on it and choose "Update Software Driver"
(something like that, mine is in portuguese...). If it doesn't work, just uninstall it and "Search for Hardware Changes". Let Windows install it
from the Internet.
BTW, the driver location should be: "x:\Windows\system32\DRIVERS\lgandnetadb.sys"

another way that maybe works but is more like a "pro" way , is to install to your pc the whole android sdk. this will search for drivers on its own and install them. it will install the latest google adb which is also working. if u dont make it to force the drivers in, let me know to show u link to the android sdk ( easy to find though ** if u end up to sdk careful to download the x32 version even if u are on x64 and double check that u have installed the latest java jdk also x32 even if u r on x64 ! )
i have sdk already, it dont matter which adb interface i want to add from google it always has the exclamation
adt-bundle-windows-x86_64-20130917.zip
in your case i cant help any more. i told you exactly what to do. next step is if i was there to do it myself. ill try make some images to show you how i installed the drivers but it will be in greek. button and everything are in same place, only language will be different.
