Anyone solved the problem of installing a DKU-5 cable (Mobile phone to computer) on win 98se?

Any comments or help please.....

i had this problem as well. you need to totally uninstall the cable drivers AND pc suite (if you are using it as i was) then reset your pc. After this you need to install the drivers FIRST then install pc suite. Even after this you may find that its a bit hit or miss as to whether your pc finds the phone (i have a nokia 6230) but keep trying it works in the end. hope this helps you......

Hi Ademthepostie,

I'm trying to install the cable for Nokia 6225 CDMA and get thru the install ok in the order you show above, however when I open with the task bar Icon and select USB connection, it tells me the no phone is connected?

I found this set of instructions and followed them with the same end result, now I'm concerned it might be the cable.

This USB driver is supported on Windows 98/2000/ME/XP. Not supported on Windows 95/98 First Edition and Windows NT.

Follow the steps below exactly to install driver of USB Data Cable:
1. Switch on your computer and make sure the USB port is in working condition.
2. Make sure your USB Data Cable is NOT connected to your PC when you install the driver.
3. Put in the CD, the "DKU-5 Connectivity Adapter Cable" auto-run will start.
4 .Click "Enter" -> "Installing the driver" to start driver installation.
5. Select "Step 1 Install USB-to_Serial Bridge", and click "Open" to start.
6. Click "Next" button to install "PL-2303 USB-to-Serial" driver.
7. Click "Finish" button to complete the installation.
8. Select "Step 2 Install DKU-5 Driver", and click "Open" to start.
9. Click "Next" button to install "Nokia Connectivity Adapter Cable DKU-5" driver.
10. Click "Finish" button to complete the installation.
11. You will be asked to restart your PC, take out your CD and click "Finish" to restart your PC.
12. Plug in the USB Data Cable to your USB port.
13. You PC will auto-detect the new hardware and complete the installation.
14. Go to "Start" -> "Settings" -> "Control Panel" -> "System".
15. From the popup window, click on "Device Manager" tab and expend the "Ports (COM & LPT)" item.
16. Check the serial port number assigned by Windows to this USB [e.g. USB to Serial Port (COM4)].
17. Put in the CD and select "Installing Software" to start application installation.
18. Follow "Step 2 Installing PC Suite" to install application suitable for your OS.
19. Reboot you computer when software installation is completed.

as i said in my reply the software + cable is VERY hit and miss, stick with it though it works in the end !!!!!!

I found the problem, when I opened via the task bar and saw the 4 options, under USB it said no phone connected, however when I selected the other 3 options and backed out a box popped up asking if I wanted to use the USB, clicked yes and it works.

I hope this will help others.
