    I tried installing the driver to my dell 8400 xp pro and it doesnt' show
    that it's installed. The PDF manual says i should be seeing the below
    statement.

    "For a CA-42 cable: check that Nokia CA-42 USB Phone Parent is present under

    Wireless Communication Devices. Check also that Nokia CA-42 USB (COMxx)

    is present under Ports."

    Is there somethning i can do to get this installed?

    Thanks,

    Tony

    Tony, I have just installed one of these CA-42 cables today, and I noticed
    more than one difference between the installation guide and real life.

    This is what I eventually found to work.

    I uninstalled any and all Nokia drivers that I found under Add/Remove
    Programs.

    I uninstalled Nokia PC Suite.

    Rebooted machine with NO Data Cable plugged into machine.

    Installed Nokia CA-42 driver.

    Plugged cable into PC. (Windows did not notice any new hardware added)

    Plugged cable into phone. (Windows saw new devices present, and after a
    minute or so Windows reported that it had found and installed the drivers
    automatically.)

    I installed Nokia PC Suite.

    I went into connection manager and selected CA-42 only.

    From that point on it has worked absolutely flawlessly.

    Hope that helps you.

    Don
