Have you tried turning on the camera before you plug in the USB cord? This
happened/happens to me occationally and turning on the camera first took care
of it.

## You don't have to plug this camera in. You remove the "memory stick" and
place it in the slot in the computer. The wizard (should) them come up to
unload the pics to the pic folder, name the group of pics etc. Then after
deleting the pics the "stick" is replaced in the camera. Among other things
it's fast, easy and saves battery life.

## I knew about using the USB cord on the old W98 PC, but that wasn't
necessary on this PC with WXP-Home.

## I'm not using a cord. It's the flashcard from the camera. You remove it
from the camera and insert it into the Flashdrive and the MS wizard supposed
to come up.

## How do I fix the MS scanner and camera wizard to come up again when the
flashcard is inserted in the flash drive?
