IR Sync with Palm Vx and Win2k

[jasonsRX7]

I have an IBM Workpad C3 (which is a Palm Vx) and an IBM Thinkpad A20p running Win2k. I want to be able to sync the Palm to the Palm Desktop software on the laptop thru the IR port. I called IBM and they were no help, only offering me advice on how to do it in Win9x, which doesn't work in 2k. Anyone have any advice on how to get this to work? Right now, the laptop is never able to start the sync to the palm.

Thanks,

Jason

If I remember correctly that laptop has the modem built in right? Also do you have you rIR port setup to a COM port in the Plam Desktop software. The modem I believe is on com1 so you will need to set the IR port to use Com2.
