SOURCE: Downloading audiofiles from Olympus VN-960PC
I figured it out.
My VN-960 wouldn't recognize because windows didn't have a driver for it.
With the Install CD still in the drive, Go to the control panel, New Hardware, then wait for it to finish searching. Click on My Hardware is connected, then choos the Digital Wave Recorder, and then find driver. It should install the driver and Work now!

This problem can typically be solved by unplugging the device from
your computer's USB port and plugging it in to another USB port on the
same computer.
