By new you must mean new to you, as I think the 8800 has been out of production for a while.
Download the latest version of "Desktop Manager" from the RIM BlackBerry support site (
Smartphones, Cell Phones & Smart Phones at BlackBerry.com). That will install both the drivers required to charge the BB, and software you will need to sync to your desktop, backup/restore and load and update software.
Good luck.
