Welcome to Fixya

You dont actually need driver/software for this camera. If you just want to copy the pictures to your computer. For as long as you have a card reader or USB cable windows OS should download it. When you plug USB into your computer a box should pop up and say digital device found. Then your all set.

Thank you for using Fixya!

best way is to contact Vivitar directly at www.vivitar.com

The ViviCam 5386 does not record any sound to go with its videos. You can add a soundtrack using video-editing software on a computer, but you cannot record one on the camera.

I have the cd but this a bit scratched .. not even tried to install to see if we are able. then I say something,,,, angela email t0m_s0yer@hotmail.com

I assume that you have already tried plugging in your camera and letting Vista look for the correct driver! If you have your original disk that came with the camera, try it. Even though it was not for Vista. Most USB equipment require that you first install the drivers before you plug in the device. I have not checked the Vivitar web site since I still use Windows XP but they might have a driver available for your camera. Keep in mind that you do not need to use the USB port to download your pictures to the computer!!! You could purchase a USB Card Reader that is Vista compatable and simple remove the Memory card from your camera and let the Card Reader transfer your pictures to the computer. When you have finnished copying your pictures to the computer, do not let the computer delete them! If you do, the camera may not work properly. I once let the computer blank out the memory chip and then my camera would not work until I reformated the chip with the camera. Then the chip would work again. Simply use your camera to remove the pictures after you have put them on your computer.

Very easy. I just bought a friend a used one.No software. Just buy a card reader that fits into your USB port.Insert SD card and download to your computer.No canles needede.
