Have you installed the software from Sony Ericsson that allows syncing

if it is a serial cable, launch hyperterminal or equivalent comm sw,
connecting directly to the serial port the cable is plugged into. Then you
should see the phone as a plain old intelligent modem (type AT and it
should answer OK).

If it does, the cable and the phone interface are fine.

yes it proves that it communicates to the phone over the cable.
You can use the phone as a wireless modem on the go.

As for "seeing into the phone" the way you explore a windows disk, you will
need another program that interrogates the phone over the cable (or over BT
or the IR) and builds a visual tree of what is inside, eg. FMA from
sourceforge.net.

I am not avare of phones which can be plugged directly into the PC via usb,
and get recognized as external memory, the way a flashpen does.

Thanks for the continued advice.
I'm not sure what I actually did but its working now :-)
I reinstalled a different [newer? older? cant remember now] version of phone
monitor, ran fma again and bingo!

Thanks once again for all the help.

cheers!
