Hi I'm running windows xp media centre 2005 on dell dimension 5150. I
can't
find my com ports in device manager and when trying to connect my phone
with
nokia pc suite, this failed stating unable to locate serial port or
something
similar. Can anyone help please?

How does this phone physically connect to the PC? Often, these use a USB
type cable that requires that you install a driver, which creates a mapping
to a com port. And that port sometimes doesn't exist if the cable and
phone aren't connected to the PC.
