hey. i just bought a data cable for my razr v3m, but it didn't come with any
software, and my computer cannot locate the software. is there a site anyone
could send me to? i'm looking all over the place, but no luck yet. i just
want to transfer data(pics and video, not music) from my phone to my pc, and
the guy at the store who sold me the cable(usb) said it did'nt need any
software.i have an Alienware Area-51 desktop with an upgraded motherboard and
a new geforce nvidia card, running xp with sp2. thanks.

Looks like the guy told you a "story." Motorola seems to require
software to do what your want but THEY sell it only.

He lied.

You need to purchase and install Motorola's Phone Tools, which
include the necessary device drivers for the phone.

(By the way, if you got your RAZR from Verizon, it's been deliberately
crippled to prevent your transferring videos or pictures between phone
and PC. Verizon wants to be able to charge you extra for emailing those
data files to yourself.)

thanks to both of you for your replies. i found a "pkdigital download" site
selling the software for $5, but i was having trouble with the download.i
entered my credit card info, and the page took forever to turn over. i didn't
refresh, either, and just lost the page. i'm in the process of trying to find
out if i was in fact charged for the download. they say they are authentic
resale dealers(not like the fakes on ebay), but after experiencing trouble
with the download last night( probably due to my cheap router), i may take
you both up on your advice and pay more. thanks again, people.

You're welcome. I'd also advise you to cancel that credit card account
number and get a new one, just to be safe.
