if I had a penny for everytime I have answered this 
almost certainly you have not installed the seus usb driver which you can get from the SE support site
edit: I assume you are pressing the c key asyou turn the phone on?

All the jiggling is really about uninstalling the Sony Ericsson drivers that came within the original cd, and install the usb.flash drivers, thats the one and only that will recognize your mobile phone as an usb flash, and then you can flash it, unlock/unbrand or whatever you want to do.
My problem is now deleting the usb-flash driver to the original ones!  cant seem to find how!  oh dear! |

@ Beni
You shouldnt need to uninstall the original drivers at all, or for that matter uninstall the update driver once complete. Thats a long way round you're going |

@ jagger
i wasnt able to and i had a Generic UK CDA. As far the majority is concerned none of the UK W800's can use SEUS just yet, although the firmware is out, i would have thought  are putting their 'finishing touches' to it (thus creating a nice revenue for the likes of davinci)

what was ur CDA before the flash, if you know?
EDIT: or are you not flashing yet and just talking about installing the USB driver?

@ jagger2k: congrats man... you did it! 
@ ryanmachin: I surely had 2, cause if not I couldnt install the usb-flash driver, and without this driver my pc wouldnt recognize my k750 as an flasheable phone.. well you know what I mean (I hope)... my english aint that good.
but... anyhow.. now it is detect as usb-flash and not as a driver and memory duo.. so I cant transfer files between, cause it doesnt appear the h: drive <-- that was my phone.
whenever I try to do something and connect my phone via de usb cable, it does detect as flash, and when Im desconnecting the usb.cable, appears a freakin blue screen and I have to reboot... this occures also in safe mode windows 
any idea? by the way... whats different between de usb-cable that came with the phone and the one you can buy at davinci?... I´ve seen other page with unlocking software and there the cable looks exactly like the one the phone comes with. isnt it a way around to unlock without buying this cable? cause I cant flash the sw, because it is locked! need to unlock |

that means its branded ive got 2 sim free ones and i have tried every network, thats in the uk ie: o2,vodafone,t-mobile,bt mobile,virgin,and orange. and it keeps saying not available for your operator so it must be because they are sim free well never mind ill keep trying lol.
has anyone in the uk updated there firmware with a sim free w800i that was bought in the uk.
