Am i missing some drivers or something? I downloaded the setool proggie with the video instructions.

Its really frustrating me at the moment. I have no idea why it wont recognise the phones.

Windows detects them but the program does not.

The battery is in the phone and the sim is inserted. (does the sim need to be in the phone??)

thanks for the help. (Running XP OS)
So does XS++ detect the phone?

I think you need the USB Flash Driver Installation - Guide - Top Sony Forums
