Hello and HELP
I am trying to connect my digital camera to my computer (XP Pro). The computer can find the new hardware, but on my camera it shows "MSDC" on the display, and I cant see the camera anywhere on my computer. I downloaded a MSDC driver (I guess) but still nothing is working. I tried the same on my notebook, and everything works fine. Any ideas anyone
Tnx in advance.
 
Is the connection USB, what size connectors? Does the
camera have fresh batteries installed? Did you turn it to
the correct setting for downloading pictures? Did you look
at MY COMPUTER to see if the camera shows up as a drive?

It would be nice to know what camera it is too. I have heard that Kodak
can be awkward. My oldish Olympus showed up first go...

Moonchild, did you look in 'my computer'? My camera shows as an extra
drive in there.
 
yes, its USB, the normal connectors. No fresh batteries installed, but batteries are full. yes, turned to correct setting....but i get this MSDC display on all settings. Camera doesnt show up as a drive.

the weird thing is, i also got xp on my home computer (notebook) and there it works without a problem.....

If you have no joy here try rec.photo.digital but make sure you tell them which camera it is too.
