1. Try different USB ports - Kindles will hang unless plugged into a USB port on the back of the PC - they pull a lot of power apparently.
2. Don't try to open the books - Windows can't read ebook format directly (what your error message seems to imply). Once your DX shows up on your PC as "Device With Removable Storage" or as an auxiliary hard drive, just drag the ebook files from your PC (I assume they're in Your Documents folder) into the documents folder on the Kindle drive.
Or right click on your ebook file and select "copy" and then open the documents folder your Kindle drive and right click again and select "paste."
