This is the boot sequence I had:
1. Turn on computer, let it start up
2. Plug in USB cable into port
3. Plugged device into other end of USB sync cable.
4. Activestink automatically (sometimes) starts. Otherwise, start it manually and see if the device is recognized.

I tried all that, I've had a Palm device for years, and prior to that a REX (ahh the memories), and know how to jack it a round a bit.
The odd thing was, besides not being seen by active sync, it wouldn't charge. It would recognize something was plugged in, but the amber light would blink, and then turn off, and the charge indicator read "1", which it reads when the device is unplugged
