What did I do?!?!

Ok I will try the umdl way again. Do I turn off active sync on phone too and change it to mass storage or it doesn't matter?

I don't know if it would hurt anything to switch it to mass storage, but I've always left it on activesync. Changing the connection settings in the PC activesync ensures that your computer won't be trying to connect to it.

Everything was going fine until it got to switching usb to phone. It couldn't find com 0 and the download failed. I had the usb plugged into the should I try one of the ports in the back?

Did you install the phone driver? I'm not sure if it's necessary or not, but I think I remember doing it way back when. Let me see if I can find it, then I'll post a link.

Yes I updated the driver and all.
