I need usb drivers for motorola w370 cell phone so it can show up in windows xp.?

I cannot access my Motorola W370 via my pc to add pictures, music and save my phone book numbers. The pc will acknowledge that it is found via a sound but it wont show up in windows explorer or any where else that I can find on the pc to access it. Perhaps it needs a special driver or something?

Update:

Sorry folks, after investigating the motorola website and the tracfone website it appears that Motorola programs the tracfone then "locks" it with a code that only Motorola and Tracfone knows. Motorola will not release it at all -maybe, but unlikely tracfone will.

Evidently there is supposed to be an extra menu item where it allows you to access the sim card while connected to a pc. The only fix I can think of now is to save all phone contacts to the sim card and purchase a sim card reader. That way you can add music, pictures, and games to it and also backup the phone list to the pc.

    Look for a program called Mororola Phone Tools.

    all you need is a program that allows you to transfer info from your phone unto your PC.

    you can get the CD on any electronics store.
