Side Load to Test Roku App

Unable to get Roku recognized by my computer to side load the test app. I tried connecting Roku to computer with USB to USB cable and then HDMI to DVI cable. Both didn't work. Any ideas?

Re: Side Load to Test Roku App

Read part 7 of DeveloperGuide.pdf. You have to put your box into developer mode, connect it to your local network (wired or wireless) and then use your browser on your computer to browse to your Roku's IP address.
