Palm m100 sync problem

During a recent Hotsync operation with my Palm m100, I received a message that there was a message in the log. The message said - correctly - that I had a dublicate address. I then removed one incident of the address on both the handheld and on the PC. After this I can no longer synchronize on any of the two PC's (both Win2000) that I normally synchronize with. If I press the Hotsync button now, I get the message 'Connecting with the desktop using DirectSerial', which I think is as usual. There is apparently contact of some kind to the desktop as the 'Hotsync Progress' dialog appears on the desktop with the following content: Status: Connecting with handheld User: (As far as I remember, my name used to be stated as the user). However, I do not get the 'jingle' and after a minute or so I get a HotSync Problem message: 'The connection between your handheld computer and the desktop could not be established. Please check your setup and try again.' and the 'Hotsync Progress' dialog disappears from the desktop. I have checked the name in the Conduit Manager and it seems to be set up correctly - and I did not change it during the time the problem appeared. Free memory: 1336 og 1920K.
