I installed the software that came with it but never use it.
I just plug in the phone and let windows freak out telling me to install new hardware etc, just press cancel afew times.
Press file transfer mode on the phone when you plug it in, then let it reset and go in to the actual transfer mode. Then use either windows explorer or my computer to simply drag the files onto the phone, it should appear as Drive D: or whatever. Expand it and you will see all the folders; Music, video, other, etc etc. The camera one is DSCF or something like that
