first I had the the version that came with my phone on the CD.but with that version the txt messager didn't work.
So I installed the 6.6 version in english(while I needed the dutch version, but that wouldn't install due to a cab file that's missing of broken)
but now the datacable doesn't work. I have the DKU-2 and with the 6.4 version I first used it worked. but now when I want to install it, I can't.
anybody got an idea about installing the DKU-2 cable?

Uninstall PC Suite. Also uninstall the "Nokia Connectivity Cable" drivers from Control Panel (Add/Remove Programs). Reboot.

Reinstall the latest PC Suite (now, at least, it should also install the latest DKU-2 cable drivers).

Connect the phone with the cable & wait until Plug & Pray has done whatever it does and announces "Your new hardware is ready" (or something along those lines).

Like N/A stated, the 6.6. version of PC Suite INCLUDES the sw driver for your cable so there is no need to separately install any driver sw, it is enough that you install PC Suite 6.6.
If you check your "add/remove programs" list from control panel, you should see Nokia connectivity cable and Nokia PC Suite both there. If they are there, just plug the cable to the phone and other end to PC, Windows should then notice the phone through the cable and start to install the driver Plug&Pray like N/A said 😊

It seems you are missing the cable driver. I suggest that you deinstall completely and reboot the pc. To be totally sure that everything is gone you can also use the Nokia Registry Cleaner that you can find on the Nokia support website.
Then you start over installing PC Suite 6.6 without connecting the phone. Once the installation is finished you can connect the phone.

I just downloaded the cable driver and now everything works
thx everyone.

For the record, I had the same problem. PC Suite 6.6 *didn't* include the right cable driver. I had to go back to the cable driver install on the original CD and after this everything worked perfectly.

The DKU-2 drivers are, most definitely in the PC Suite installation package. It is a different matter if they weren't installed for some strange reason or another.

I have no clue as to what that might be. On my PC they have been installed with PC Suite just fine (I always first uninstall the old version and then the drivers separately, before installing a new version).
