camera gone mad?

[diamondlil]

My olympus x-760, just out of warranty (of course) has a problem. When I tried to upload pictures last night, it isn't being recognised as a device! It usually is seen as location 'g' disc drive. I tried a different cable, tried different ports on the hub thingy,and it still flashes on and off as 'g', not being recognised long enough to upload the pictures

Just checked on the support website,and I would still be in warranty if I hadn't dropped the camera and repaired it's battery door with duct tape.......

is there cd or anything that came with the camera?, maybe the 'driver' isn't working/being recognised :shrugs:

 

[diamondlil]

I'll have a look for it!

Did you install something different on that USB port, e.g., a printer or something?

 

[diamondlil]

It's a new multi-hub thingy, and it worked for the camera for a couple of sessions, then started playing up last night. I tried the camera in the usb port I used before getting the new device, with no joy. I haven't found the CD that came with the camera yet, in case it is the driver.

Sometimes you can find the driver on the manufacturer's website. Or just Google it.

I've tried the olympus website, with no luck so far, except to find the camera shouldn't need a driver installed? There's a help line number to try though

 

[diamondlil]

It's a miracle! Found the original box with installation CD, so here we go.........
