TB not working with BB 8220(FLIP)

Hi,,,great idea with this software...

Using BB flip(8220) and Vista64 Ultimate. Also tried it on another laptop with XP 32bit. Cant get it to work. Laptop software installs perfectly in both cases but BB version takes a long time and if I try to run it on device it hangs the device and a white screen is shown until I hit the red button. Laptop software runs and recognizes the BB and gives message "Start Tetherberry on the Blackberry" and stays there. I run the software in Vista64 as administrator.

I've rebooted the laptops and removed battery on BB various times. I also reinstalled the Tetherberry software twice on the BB device. BB desktop Manager is version 4.7 and BB firmware is at 4.6.222. Both network adapters are switched off. Provider is Verizon.

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.
