Nexus 7 not visible over USB via “adb devices” from Windows 7 x64

Question

I have done the obvious -- the USB driver was installed from the latest Android SDK, and USB debugging was turned on in the tablet.

When the Nexus 7 is connecte

Answer 1

I discovered that you can also do Device Manager -> Update Driver Software -> Browse my computer for driver software -> Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer -> Android Phone -> [ADB driver version 6 near top of list... sorry, I can't remember exact name]

As soon as I did that, it connected, and I was able to sideload version 4.2 on Windows 7 64 bit.
