Motorola Cell Phone W375 unable to connect to my PC

I'm trying to connect a Motorola W375 cell phone up to my computer. The mini-usb hookup recognizes the phone however the drivers I have do not work with the phone. At this point all I really want to do is to upload ringtones. I am able to hookup other motorola cell phones and have them recognized as modems, I would then use p2kCommander to interact with the file system on the phone.

Because the phone is not recognized, I assume I need a different driver for this phone (prepaid minutes cell phone) I have not been able to find anything yet. I wan't to be able to upload my own ringtones onto this phone.

Thanks,

Nacho

I found this file :

It now allows me to connect my phone to the computer and have it identified. Still I am unable to upload my own ring tones.

You may want to try P2K Commander http://handheld.softpedia.com/get/Developer-Tools/File-Manager/P2kCommander-38120.shtml, along with the Motorola Software Update program. Here's an example with the RAZR, but the idea is the same with other Motorola phones: http://forums.wirelessadvisor.com/razr-phones/59694-loading-ringtones-from-p2k-commander.html

Thanks for the help Callandor, as of now I've managed to find more information however I still am not able to communitcate in p2kCommander with this phone. I haven't tried any other versions as of yet my research indicates that this phone is different from the other Motorola phones ive been able to use p2cComannder with. its a DOM phone or something? I have this flasher util called dmtools from here http://rapidshare.com/files/44641956/W375_V0.0.76.rar.html and some .MOT (motorola?) files I dont know what to do with these yet no info.txt
