I have had this phone since this morning, and at first on programs like SEtool and others, it asks you to Hold "C" and insert USB Cable! I hold C, insert the cable, and it either carries on asking me to do that and nothing happens on the phone, or File transfer mode will startup on the phone, so i'm guessing its not detecting when I hold C?

setool suggests that I run recovery mode, but that doesn't detect it either.

Whenever this happens, I have to take the battery out of the phone, wait a few seconds then put it back in before the phone will boot normally.

I have no idea why it would suddenly stop working like this, any ideas?

Instal your USB flash drivers, then it will work

Hmm. It worked before as soon as I plugged in, and then I installed Gordans Gate Flash Driver, do you think that may be the cause?

try to plug it onn pressing 2 or 2&5!

Fixed it now, thanks for the responses, I just had to uninstall Gordans Gate Flash Driver, or whatever that things called.
