Sounds like you need the USB Drivers for your camera...

but there's no point loosing patience with something that you knew little about in the first place

Things aren't normally THAT easy are they?

go and buy a car reader......

unless you have a crappy cheapo camera, the memory card will come out. you plug this into a reader unit, which typically also is usb.


diference is, something you buy will have the drivers! the bigger tescos have readrs for a tenner and you can get similar on ebay

should've said before what steve gusto said
"buy a card reader" then you will never use that crappy camera cable ever again

i am a big advocate of the memory card it is just so much better than anything else, quick small reliable and fairly cheap

my new work computer doesn't have a floppy drive just a slot for a memory card

Maybe its not working because of the new orifice you have created in the harddrive





The mental gymnastics a landlord will employ to justify immoral actions is clinically fascinating. Just because something is legal doesn't make it moral.
