[NTLK] MP Connection Problem

Hello,

I am new here on the NewtonTalk list but I have been using my eMate since
1999 and my MessagePad 2100 since last year. I could not live without them!

I have purchased a cable that connects from the Newton InterConnect port to
a PC's serial input from J&K Sales so I could transfer files from my Newtons
to my Windows XP PC. Using Newton Connection Utilities, I was able to
connect my eMate to my computer and connect without any problems. However,
when I tried to connect my MessagePad 2100, I got an error on the Newton's
screen stating that it received no response from the computer. I have both
Dock connection types set to 'Serial' on both devices.

What could be wrong with the connection? Is there something I overlooked?

Thanks in advance.
