I've seen that too, with W7 starter, but if you connect up before switching on it usually works.

2024: stroke 5.5W-min@20-21. ½k 190W, 1k 145W, 2k 120W. Using Wods 4-5days/week. Fading fast.

Ill try that tonight.

I figured it had something to so with the way windows7 identifies USB ports vs xp and or vista.

Got home and tried your trick. It worked without a hitch. However I noticed when I went to use the concept2 utility that I needed to unplug the USB cord and reinsert to get the utility to recognize the PM3.The two pieces of software must utilize different ports or something. I am no software engineer i can tell you that. :lol:
