I'm trying to unlock my P900 using DaVinci but when i click unlock i'm presented with the following error:

**** UNLOCKING STARTED ****
Error opening DSS port: COM17
Execution Time - 00:00:00
Error: 0x000100

Anyone have any ideas what's wrong and how to correct it?

Have you selected the correct com port?

Yes. It also detects the DSS station being at port 17.

I'm not too sure how happy he will be with me for adding to his workload, but pm gbrooks3; if he can't help you with an unlocking problem then no one can.

Thanks, but i've just given up using the DSS station and placed an order for a T28 service cable instead

Anything for a peaceful life.

Amen to that! I just did the same thing. The DSS best use is to collect dust in a corner.

You might wanna try switching the com port to COM9 or lower on your Control Panel>System>Device Manager> Communication Port settings. I had teh same problem & 'GsMen' of the DaVinci Team helped me with this problem & it worked perfectly fine after I changed the port. Do the Read CID after you change the port number.
