Did you put it in USB mode?

Thanks guys, both your advices helped. I'm new to Android and Samsung, that's why sometimes simply things for you are difficult for me.
Thanks again

Default Connection to PC

Strange is that I have the newest Kies but still I can connect GS2 only with Kies air. With USB cable the PC Win xp says that cant recognise the USB device. And through kies air I cant view folders and copy directly to them. Or is XP too old for samsung

I had problems with the drivers on W7 because I had an older version of KIES installed and when I installed KIES 2 it didn't work so I uninstalled everything related to KIES, reinstalled 2.xxx and now it works fine.
