Try Putty to SSH in.......you will need a proper console cable only if Telnet, SSH and\or the GUI interface is not configured properly....which sounds like the case. Be sure to connect the RJ45 to the Console Port and connect the Serial Port side to the PC......and choose "Serial" in Hyper-Terminal or Putty....
PS - I would assume "What you are missing" is not choosing "Serial" as the Connection Protocol......
PSS - A Cisco Console cable is a "Rollover Cable".....not specifically a "Crossover Cable"....Yada Yada ;-)
