I have a Palm V and have just upgraded my o/s from Windows 98 second edition=

to XP. I have downloaded the Palm 4.1 desktop and USB drivers software for X=
P=20
but I cannot hotsynch because the com ports don't work. There is no conflict=
=20
but all my pc is showing is COM1 and LPTI and when I link the hotsynch to CO=
M1=20
(or even Com3 which it used to use) all I get is a message that says the com=
=20
port is not available. There is no yellow highlight it just doesn't seem to=20
want to link to any program. My pc is a Dell which has the following=20

Is there any software that I can buy from you that will solve this problem?

Thanks
