Windows Mobile Device Center cannot sync with my Outlook 2010

I've recently tried to sync a phone with my Outlook contacts and calendar via USB cable. It worked fine before on this machine already, but I had my x64 desktop reinstalled since then and now I have Outlook 2010. Yes, the 64-bit version.

First I didn't understand why I'm out of luck now... I always got a pop-up from WMDC with the error message "Either there is no default mail client or the current mail client cannot fulfill the messaging".

I found the answer here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/980513

Basically there is no hope to make this work with the x64 version of Outlook 2010?!
