Turn the calculator on.
Installed the stuff on your CD.
Connect USB cable well.
Tell us what you are trying to do.
And I don't understand how you would use a USB cable to install TI-Connect.

Ticonnect auto installs all of the drivers into your computer.
when you plug in your calculator and turn it on, your computer should install the driver to that piece of hardware, and THEN it will know to put 2+2 together (TIconnect and your calculator) otherwise its like casting a line in fog. you may hit a rock, you may hit the lake. who knows? for the computer, i mean. to which of course there are no variables it likes, so since it's unsure, it won't do it.

Total Posts: 583 | yes i had that problem with my laptop. just wait a while without plugging in your calc if the above doesnt work. after a couple weeks or so, uninstall and reinstall TIconnect from the TIworldwide website. then wait until its done installing and it is booted. then plug in your calculator. if it still doesnt work, i dont know what to tell you.

Total Posts: 583 | well if youre able to find the driver your computer installed your calculator as, be my guest as to delete it
then install your calc again with the ticonnect driver.
and please refrain from double posting. there is a nifty edit button underneath your name.

Total Posts: 714 | Ok it is a very easy process. Follow my instructions and it will work just fine.
1. Don't worry about TI-connect it's not the problem.
2. Right click the My Computer icon and select properties
3. Click on the tab called Hardware.
4. Now click on the Device Manager button.
5. Look for any yellow "?", or a category called unknown devices
6. Expand the category if not already
7. Right click the device in question
8. Click uninstall, or update. (Shouldn't really matter as long as you have TI-connect installed)
9. Restart windows (Just to be on the safe side)
10. Plug your calc in you computer. It should find it and install it, or if you chose update it should just make a sound.

There is a neat little edit button at the bottom of your posts. Don't make multiple posts in succession unless separated by a decent time frame.
Asm(prgmA) (I think) to run Ion.
Mario needs to be run through a shell, which in your case seems to be Ion.
