My brother has Nokia 6610i mob. He bought DKU-5 cable. I installed the USB drivers and the pcsuite s/w from the CD but still then it didn't detected the phone. It keeps on asking for the drivers. I also tried the drivers available at Nokia site but no use.
What possibly could be the problem?

I use WinXP Pro SP1.

better is stay with the drivers you got from the cd(which shipped with the cable)

after you've connected everything and installed drivers, open pc suite>Manage Connection, select the option which says "Dku-5,CA-42" and click configure, from the drop down menu select the port which says "Prolific" assuming your DKU-5 is based on prolific chipset, wait a min or 2, your phone will get detected, if not remove the tick from "Dku-5,CA-42" and again select it(enable the tick), it will work.

these are two different problems
1. driver problem: install drivers, pm me your email id i will send you drivers if you dont have
2. driver installed but phone not detected: select proper com port for cable. check com port from device manager

There is no 'profilic' option under it. Only 3 options:COM3,COM1 and COM2.
And why it says Serial port for DKU-5 cable. See the attachment pic.

sariq, how can i select proper com from DM? There are only two coms!COM1, COM2) showing under Ports in DM.

install drivers again, reboot and if still it doesn't show prolific there try upgradin to sp2, even in the device manager it will show prolific.
