Lets go through these options so we can be clear what we're talking about. There are two screens relevant to the topic:
Connection prompt screen:
ActiveSync - the 11 pin proprietary HTC USB cable is required. Obviously, this allows your phone and your computer (with Outlook installed) to sync contacts and calander and tasks and the like. ActiveSync allows you to install and manage programs on your phone (but I've never done it) and allows you to browse the phone data system including the storage card. Additionally, the phone, itself, also retains the ability to access the sortage card.
USB - This is simply connecting the phone is Mass Storage mode. No special drivers or software required, Can be done with a standard 5 pin mini-usb cable. Ostensibly faster data transfer, but only to the storage card. When connected in Mass Storage mode, the phone will lose the ability to "see" the storage card.
Internet Connection Sharing - You should never have to check this as launching ICS from your phone chooses this connection type automatically.
Start -> Settings -> Connections -> USB to PC
Only has the the first two options with the checkbox under ActiveSync to "Enable faster data synchronization" with the note: 'Clear this checkbox if ActiveSync does not recognize the device'
My setting is "Enable faster data synchronization" and I've had no problems with it

Thanks everyone, unfortunately, I was only able to sync once now if I check or uncheck the enable faster data sync nothing works. I cannot have a phone without syncing to my data via pc. I will reflashing because if this rom works, I would love to run it on my phone.
