i recently purchased a 9290, i can;t connect the supplied data cable to my laptop, my laptop doesn't have a serial port. i bought a parallel - serial adapter,but it's not working, any ideas? i called nokia and they said that i have to change my parallel port setting to com1. I have no idea how to do that and don't even think it's possible or is it? i am running XP, any help would be great

I think it is posible. Just like when you are configuring your modem, you can change port settings, from com1, com2, com3.....etc. I will try to send the exact details next time. :)
