G'day Kendra,

what cd for what phone and was it a el cheapo cable??

Cheers,

David

I think it was you know. I did wonder about that. Also the mobile shop gave
it to me for free so I'm guessing that's why. I';; send you a sample of the
"read me" file to show you why I felt it was a cheap one:


--------------------------------------------
THE USER¡¯S MANUAL OF USB CABLE

1.Driver Installation:

A.Double click ¡°USB Data Cable Driver ¡° logo of CD-ROM before plug in the
cable, and then following the guide step-by-step
to complete of the installation.

B.Restart the computer after finish installing.

C.The computer will download the driver while plugging in the cable.

2.Notice: connecting the mobile phone (for example: on windows 98 system )

A.After plugging in USB Cable, click ¡°my computer / attribute / device
management service / port (COM/ LPT) to check whether
there is ¡°USB to Serial Port (COM X ) ¡° or not . The data of ¡°X¡± is
different, and probably the computer is different,
usually the data of ¡°X¡± is superior to ¡®COM 3¡¯. If there isn¡¯t a port
like this or this port can not work normally, you
have to confirm the driver installation again.

and sorry, it's a Nokia 7250i

Looking at the copy of the TXT err yeah it's an el cheapo - As your phone
supports infrared - go out a get one (infrared adaptor) throw the cable
away - then get proggies like MobiMB http://logomanager.co.uk and Oxygen
you can't go wrong


Cheers,
David

Sheeeet this must of been translated and badly at that.

What it's trying to say is:

Open your control panel and double click system (forget how 98 does it
but 2000) > hardware > device manager

expand your Ports (com & lpt) and look for a com port that supports
your usb cable.

If no comm port: Plug your phone and cable to the USB port (phone on)
run add/ remove hardware (control panel) and hopefully it will see
your phone; when it ask for drivers, point it to the cd that was
supplied.

Your previous post:
Just got a data cable. I put in the CD, apparently installed it and
now I don't know what to do or how to do it!! There's nothing to click
on on the desktop! Help............

Click on start, scroll down to the program; if none this would of just
been a driver installation and you will now need to install PC suite
available with the CD provided with the phone or from Nokia.
