If it should work what do i do to let the computer know that it is connected or should it know automatically. Any help here would be much appreciated.

The 15 pin on your laptop is most likely for connecting an external monitor so it would be of absolutely no use to you.
You need the NULL MODEM cable, and if you need to connect it to your laptop you will most likely need a USB adaptor.
Whatever you say, say nothing when you talk about you know what for if you know who might hear you, you know what youll get. Youll be sent off to you know where for you would not know how long. Maybe I could search through the threads so you dont have to ??
