Trouble installing or updating Motorola USB Modem drivers

Motorola phones use the built-in Windows USB modem driver (usbser.sys) for
communication with MPT. The USBMOT2000.INF driver file (which comes with
MPT) lists the USB product IDs for Motorola phones and instructs Windows to
use the usbser.sys file with them.

Unfortunately, the drivers may not be installed correctly for the phone in
any of these situations:

- The phone was plugged in before installing MPT and the user cancelled out
of the hardware wizard.

- The user had an old version of MPT (and thus an old version of the driver
file) that did not contain the product ID for a very new phone (for example,
the E815). And, even after LiveUpdating to the latest version of MPT, the
new driver file is not installed.

Recently, BVRP posted a driver installation tool on their website, developed
by Motorola, that will remove all instances of the old drivers and any
traces of previously installed phones. It will then install the latest
drivers and reinstall the phone, solving any issues. The driver tool is at
this location:

This is on the FAQ page for BVRP
http://support.bvrp.com/phpbb2/viewtopic.php?t=3966
"The driver installation tool listed in 4) will install the usbser.sys
"driver file from Windows 2000 (which does not exhibit the incompatibility)
"for use with Motorola phones on Windows XP.

"The driver file is installed as "usbsermpt.sys" as to not conflict with a
"Windows system file and also to avoid being overwritten during Windows
"Update, etc. "

There is no documentation included with the Zip itself.
It located and deleted several "old" files, and installed its own infs.
oem28.inf
DriverVer=7/10/2005, 2.0.0.6MPT`
usbsermpt.sys,,,0x20

oem59.inf
ClassGUID={4D36E96D-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}
DriverVer=7/13/2005, 1.0.0.2
usbser.sys,,,0x20

I don't see that it copied either of the .sys files to c:/windows.
There is a usbsermpt.sys in my login directory, but not in c:/windows/*.
