used to work find on same pc running xp home. Have tried fixes used by this
group on similar problems. Recently removed Real 10 has suggested by group.
Camera does appear under device manager as imaging device when connected but
will not update driver-get invalid data message at end of install wizard. Two
unrecognized devices listed under imaging devices even with no camera
connected and they will not uninstall- says may be needed for boot. Any ideas?
 
Hello Brian,

Not sure if you've had any luck with this issue or not. Here is some info
from the Toshiba web site. The info in the First Time Install section is
definitely worth trying.
- Downloading Images
The USB connection was designed for use with Microsoft Windows
98/2000/ME/XP. If you are using Windows 95 or Windows NT, the drivers in
your operating system may not be supported by the USB connection. USB is
also supported by Apple / MAC.

FIRST TIME INSTALL

Note: Image Expert can be installed before or after the USB drivers for the
camera. If it is installed prior to installing the drivers, then please
temporarily remove the Camio Viewer from the System Tray (At the bottom
right of the screen in the bar, it looks like a little camera. Right Click
the little camera and select 'Exit' to temporarily close Camio Viewer while
you install the drivers.)

1) Drivers are located on the CD. Drivers can also be downloaded from the
web site to a known folder on your computer (for example, "My Documents").

2) Connect the camera to the computer by USB and turn the camera to the
"connection" setting on the Mode Dial (looks like a lightning bolt). Please
wait for the computer to detect the camera, this may take a few minutes the
first time it is connected (be patient, it is much faster after it has been
properly installed).

3) The Hardware Installation Wizard will recognize a new device connected to
the computer and prompt you for the location of the driver. Browse to the CD
or the folder (for example "My Documents") where the driver is located.

4) Open Image Expert and make sure that the configuration settings in the
MENU / CAMERA / CONNECTION are Serial / USB instead of USB Mounted Drive.
The pathway is not available under this setting so you will need to confirm
USB Mounted Drive is still set to DCIM only.

Let us know how that goes.

Thanks,

Thanks for your response. My problem was solved only after I removed SP2 then
installed camera. Have since reinstalled SP2 with no futher issues.
