Preparing...

when i tried to connect my DCR-SR65 sony hard disk drive camcorder to my pc it doesn't. The LCD screen of the camcorder always says "preparing..." and the pc doesnt even recognize it. I tried many tutorials on how will it connect but it won't. They always say it will just automatically connect. I'm using a USB cable to connect it to my pc.
