mmm?.
Can you not find the device in there.
It has to be plugged in to come up in the list.
If it is and you can right click on it and click uninstall driver.
Then you should get the prompt to install drivers.

Is the phone still plugged in whilst your looking at Device Manager?
Alternativly - if you've got a cd with the driver on, install the driver from the Cd. Then attach your phone to the USB cable and it should recognise it.

Don't think this will work either - but worth a shot.
Right click on My Computer, select Properties. Click the Hardware tab, then 'Add Hardware wizard' and follow the instructions and see if that helps.
Does the phone show up anything when you connect the cable? Sounds daft - but try turning your phone off/on?
