Server Busy error Windows Mobile Device Center

This seems to be a common problem but I haven't found a solution after

I googled, browsed thru ms support pages, newsgroups and forums.

4 out of 5 times I encounter this error. Windows Mobile Device Center

(WMDC) says synchronizing but it never completes and the the status

bar is 1/10th full for like 2 hours!

When I check the sync results I get 3-5 server busy error messages. No

error codes or numbers.

I either lose patience and disconnect or WMDC just cuts the connection

by itself.

This is really bugging me because I just upgraded to Vista and sync

with my device is so critical.

Please help. Thanks
