USING THE CAMERA WITH A COMPUTER
Viewing and Storing Images on a
Computer
You can view and store images (snapshot and movie files) on
your computer by connecting to the camera via its USB cradle.
• Depending on what version of Windows your computer is
running, you may need to install the USB driver from the
bundled CD-ROM first.
General Procedure
■ Installing the USB Driver (Windows 98SE
and 98 Only)
The following operation shows how to install the USB driver on a
computer running Windows 98. The procedure for Windows
98SE is slightly different, but the general flow is the same.
1. Set the bundled CD-ROM into the CD-ROM
drive of your computer.
• Use the CD-ROM that has “USB driver” on its label.
• This will display the menu screen.
1) If your computer is running Windows 98SE or 98, install the USB
driver (page 221). If your computer is running Windows Vista,
XP, 2000, or Me, proceed directly to step 2.
2) Use the USB cradle to connect the camera and computer (page
222).
3) View and copy the images you want (page 226).
Do not try to establish a connection between the camera
and computer before installing the USB driver on the
computer.
If you do, the computer will not be able to recognize the
camera.
If your computer is running Windows 98SE or 98, be sure to
install the USB driver.
Do not connect the camera to your computer without installing
the USB driver first.
