Jester Posted October 16, 2006 Share Posted October 16, 2006 can we get some more details Make / Model info like that. Check Deivce Manager and remove the drivers and the software you have installed then reinstall and try plugging your device in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moonlit Posted October 16, 2006 Share Posted October 16, 2006 Uninstall the drivers, insert the CD, *follow the instructions*, then plug in the camera when it tells you or when it's finished. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moonlit Posted October 16, 2006 Share Posted October 16, 2006 You unplugged the camera, uninstalled the drivers, restarted, installed the drivers from the CD that are designed for your OS and then after all that (or when the app on the CD told you to) plugged the camera back in?

VaKo Posted October 16, 2006 Share Posted October 16, 2006 Don't waste time with installing camera drivers, just get yourself a cheap card reader. It saves a lot of time & effort, saves the camera battery and is usually just faster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jester Posted October 16, 2006 Share Posted October 16, 2006 did you look under my computer to see if the camera shows up as a removeable media. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The link he gave didn't work but I'm guessing it's one of those little cameras with no removable memory and a resolution of 800x600 or (much) less... If it is one of these then take note: they can be very flakey sometimes so you might have to try a few times to make it work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VaKo Posted October 16, 2006 Share Posted October 16, 2006 Googled about a bit, and it doesn't have removable media on it. :shock: But, my mate was also given one of those, thing hardly ever worked right, took multiple attempts to connect properly... eventually it met Mr Lump Hammer.
