Advice on sideloading files to Nook Color when PC won't recognize its existence?

I recently got a Nook Color for like $20 on Ebay to read comics on. I sideload files on a Nook Glowlight 3 so I'm familiar with the process, but the nook color isn't being recognized by my PC at all. The cable is fine, I have 3 different cables and they all work with other devices. I've had trouble charging the nook color but it's fully charged this morning and I immediately plugged it into my computer, same cord, to sideload files. Computer does not think there is anything connected. I'm (unfortunately) on Windows 11 and I've heard that newer software refuses to recognize old nooks (and this is 1.4.3 software). Since I don't have an older computer I can use, is there another way I can force my PC to recognize the nook? An adaptor or something? It's not a lot of money I spent but I'd love to be able to read Jojos in color :(
