I assume you do have iTunes installed and, as Jack suggests, make sure it's up to date. There was a 3.0.1 update released about two weeks ago and you want to install that on the phone right away. If you do have the latest iTunes then have you tried launching it and then plugging in the iPhone to see if it picks up the Phone?
