The infrared port does not work.
Check the following:
Make sure that the infrared ports of the two devices are
facing each other (+/- 15 degrees) a maximum of 1 meter
apart.

ports. Nothing should be blocking the ports.
Make sure you have the appropriate software running
on both devices (for file transfers) or you have the
appropriate drivers (for printing to an infrared printer).
During POST, press F2 to access the Setup Utility. Go to
the Advanced screen and verify that the infrared port is
enabled.
Make sure both devices are IrDA-compliant.
