Com1? You are using the cradle with the USB connector right? If yes, check your Phone Link Connection again and make sure that a com port that is higher than 3 is present. I'm using an IR link right now so I'm not sure what the new com port number is. Will get back to you when I get home and check my home PC.

Its only com1 and the IR connections available, and my pc doesnt have IR support. The USB port does work, i tried the mouse in it and it was fine. Why cant things just work?????????

Are you saying when you double click on Phone Connection Link on your Systray and not getting USB as an option?

Right. You should be able to see an entry with USB as the Connection type, and it's own COM Port value (mine is in COM5). If not, have you tried using your cradle on another PC? If not, give it a try on another PC and see if it works. If it doesn't, then you may have a defective cradle.

Com1 SHOULD be the serial port on the mobo - I'd recommend re-installing your USB driver for the cradle as it's not being pickup up correctly. Your OS is not Win 95 or NT I take it
