Hi, I have been able to hotsync my Palm Vx with Windows 2000 using a Palm USB kit.
Thanks to Lou for the information. Here is something that I gleaned from it that helped.
Installed Palm Desktop 4.1, then the USB connection kit driver for Windows on my machine. I also upgraded my Palm Vx to Palm OS 3.5.3 using a serial cable on another machine. I also have a very old PIM (ECCO Pro from 1997) which has all my data.
I checked the local Serial option on the Hotsync Manager and I was able to Hotsync. The local USB option does not have much impact. This is counter intuitive.
