Windows 7 and the canon g6

[Andrew Ward]

Hello,
I recently bought a canon 7D which works perfectly with my laptop, however my existing G6 will not work with windows7 no matter what i download. I have downloaded updates to software and the latest codec but to no avail.......i am at my wits end. I know that changing the card into the 7D solves this problem but it is a pain having to do this everytime i need to download photos from my G6.

So what exactly is the problem? The camera is not recognized, when plugged in via usb or what?
