I recently bought a z500a sony ericsson cell phone and a dcu-11 cable so i could connect it to my computer, and put pictures on my computer from the phone. I downloaded the dcu-11 driver, the File manager, and the sync station from sony ericsson's site. When i connect the cable to my usb on the front of my computer, it comes up as "found new hardware". Then i go through the steps with the "New Hardware Wizard".
What happens is: In Device manager, it adds a "other devices" and "USB serial controller" They both have a yellow question mark and the usb serial controller also has a yellow exclamation mark. I try to re-install driver for that, but it does have one.
Is there a driver for the usb serial driver, and if so where would i get that.
I have a e-machines, Windows XP SP2 Home edition.
My digital camera works when i use the usb on the front of my computer, so that shouldn't be the problem.
Someone please help me to connect the cell phone correctly.

Thanks so much,
