My nexus wont show up on my PC when its in the bootloader. It works fine when its on but as soon as i type adb reboot bootloader, or even power down and vol dwn power its still wont show up on the pc or device manager. 

 

When its on it shows on the PC as android composite ADB interface. and a nexus audio device. 

 

How do i get my pc to show my phone while in bootloader?

I've run into the same issue with my Nexus 4 in the past. Usually you can fix it be uninstalling old drivers related to Android devices. I usually just follow WugFresh's Nexus Root Toolkit, there's a simple initial setup that helps get a clean install of all the necessary drivers.

 

Here's a video tutorial on using the toolkit if you'd like to see how it works: http://youtu.be/FC6IVTG7G-E?t=12s

What do you mean to get the phone to show in bootloader mode? When it's in the screen with the Android guy and you choose reboot/power off/recovery, it's fastboot, and you use commands such as "fastboot devices" to identify the phone.

No unknown devices shown in device manager? It should be identified as Android Bootloader Interface or something similar when working. Try the official Google USB drivers. http://developer.android.com/sdk/win-usb.html

You probably know this stuff already, but maybe review the procedure. You seem to be doing everything correctly for the most part from what I can tell... maybe reinstall drivers?

 

Also, why do you need Eclipse? Do you plan on doing some Android Development?

I dont need it. I thought i was supposed to install the SDK, and i did this by installing eclipse .

 

What other drivers?  The only driver i know to install is google USB, and i've re installed it 3 times now.
