htc p600i & ActiveSync

[=?Utf-8?B?TWF0dHk=?=]

I have just bought a hTC P3600i phone, with WM6 and am trying to connect to
active sync 4.5 via USB. The phone connects but gets stuck on retrieving
settings. All firewalls and anti-virus programs were uninstalled to try and
rectify the problem to no avail. I am using XP Home SP2 (windows firewall off
to test).
I can connect to my Vista Laptop with activesync via bluetooth, but i need
my main computer as this is the one with all my outlook contacts on it.
Any help would be appreciated.

Perhaps if you asked in a Windows group, rather in this .NET programming
group...

To find the group you need:

http://www.microsoft.com/communities...D-2224A4FEB3EA

Then open your language in the TreeView on the left, scroll down to
"Windows", open and scroll down to "Window XP" and
post there.
