does anything pop-up asking you for your drivers when you plug in your phone? _________________

If not [what fullyawesome suggested], plug in the phone, go to Cont. Panel > System > Device manager and see if there's an entry with a yellow question mark that might be for the phone.
Right click > Update driver, choose to manually choose where it looks for a driver, and navigate to the folder where the aforementioned .cat, .inf, and .sys files are located. |

The driver for your phone lies within the disk you got with it, in your case, something like "Sony Ericsson PC Suite".
If you need to transfer files from phone to computer, or visa versa, then just plug the phone in, and ignore the "Driver missingblabla" popup, then go ty "My Computer", and find the "(F Removable Disk" or something like that. KAPOW, you can manage your phones files. _________________
