but if it syncs with another computer wont all my music,contacts and etc get erased???

No, you dont need to sync it in order to jailbreak it.
Just run blackrain on another PC and thats all.
You dont need to open itunes or sync anything in order to jailbreak using blackrain.

but if it syncs with another computer wont all my music,contacts and etc get erased???

lol yeh you must need a new computer cos that one clearly can't jailbreak 2 phones. [/sarcasm]

it's probably just an issue with the USB drivers on your computer. You tend to find most errors are overcome by uninstalling iTunes and removing all current USB drivers for the iPhone. Or formatting to a fresh copy of your OS so everything is new anyways.

There's like a general set of instructions of what to do when you can't do something relating to having an iPhone connected to a computer. This is one of them
