The *best* way to access pictures from a digital camera does not involve connecting the
camera to the PC. The best way is to use a USB Memory Card Reader. This way you remove the
memory card from the camera and insert it into the card reader and access the pictures on a
drive such as "E:". Since the camera is not connected to the PC, it also saves battery
power as most need to be turned-on to communicate to the PC.

I suggest SanDisk memory card readers and they are inexpensive.

Have you tried opening My Computer or Windows explorer to see if the
removable drive is visible? If the (camera) drive is visible then click on
it to open up the folder and cut or copy rom there and paste into the folder
you want.
