i found this on the net:

After a long search on the sonyericsson.com/support site I found:
How to install USB driver

1) Insert the USB CD
2) Connect the USB cable into the USB port on the PC
" The add new Hardware wizard will automatically search for the floppies and CD
3) Select CD > HAVE DISK > USB CD
4) Select NEXT > FINISH
5) Select START > SETTINGS > CONTROL PANEL > SYSTEM > HARDWARE > DEVICE MANAGER
6) The DCU-10/11 USB cable can be found under PORTS with com port number shown
7) Go back again to the CONTROL PANEL > SETTINGS > PHONE MONITOR
8 ) Select COM PORTS and then Enable the port that the USB driver is installed on.

The point is that while installing the cable is very much automatic, I had to set up points 7 and 8 manually.
A) Find the port number (See point 6 above)
B) In Control Panel (Xp view) Choose " Printers and Other Hardware "
C) Then choose " Alternatives for Phone Monitor "
D) One option in the wizard that starts up is Port status. Choose Activate the Port found in point 6 above.
Finally start up synchronisation program and (hopefully) it will find the phone.

PS: You need to download separate programs for 1 - synchronisation, 2 - image editing and downloading from PC to phone and 3 - MMS creation and downloading from PC to phone

The drivers that are on the CD are usually the same as the ones that are on the SE web-site
