I also assume you have read the manual and noticed the troubleshooting section and the hints provided at the corresponding sections. A nice chapter to read is "Device lock" on page 61
Finally, I would like to know what "recognizing" means?
The computer shows no sign of a Sony gear, or the Reader does not indicate its connection to the host? Or both?

Thanks Ghitulescu. I checked. The cable only fits the Sony. (I was actually trying--mistakenly--to hook it up with the cable from my Nikon Coolpix camera.)
By recognizing I mean that when I plug the ereader into the computer (via the cord), the computer does not show the icon for the ereader on the Desktop. (Hence I have no chance to mount it.)
And there's a new complication. Now when I turn the ereader on it is stuck in the "loading" mode. Even though there's no books on it.
Kind of a mess actually. Have had these sort of problems ever since I got it. And had similar problems with another PRS 300.
