In your case, make sure your calc is turned on and is on home screen. Make sure usb cable is plugged firmly into your computer and calc plug is also plugged in. If this doesn't help, try installing a latest version of TI-Connect. Resource cds that come with calcs often have an old version that has problems on certain computer configs. Also, refer to the installation manual because there's a specific order you have to intall link drivers and TI-Connect in (i don't have a usb link so i don't remember the correct order). I hope this was helpful.
