I am trying to get my Windows Xp machine to recognise my Fuji Finepix S304 camera and i keep coming up with the same errors.I get the auto detect run and then eventually i get an error message that says "Cannot Install this hardware......An error occured during the installation of this device ...... the filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect.
I have downloaded the katest drivers from fuji but still get this error - any ideas please would be very helpful
I have borrowed one of the above from a friend. Can you tell me why you think it so great? I am perplexed by it being an autofocus camera complete with flash that is unable to focus in low light. The fixed ISO number is also irritating.
I borrowed this camera to help me make my mind up on which digicam to buy - it seems that is not this one, but I'd be happy to be persuaded on the basis of why others have chosen this model.
It is possible that I'm looking for something that dosen't exist - I want to replace a Samsung Vega, which is an autofocus (even in pitch dark) zoom 35mm compact and my aged Minolta X700 with a digicam that combines the best features of both. Unrealistic?
Have you tried uninstalling all the Fuji software and using Windows to load your photos to PC? It worked for me.

Hello Jim,
I have borrowed one of the above and installed the s/w on XP Pro. The only hiccough was that the Quicktime plugin shafted Netscape. Other than that all appeared to be fine.
Sorry.

This morning I showed my family the pictures on my Fuji camera which I took in Bangkok and Tokyo.
Then I took a plane home from Los Angeles. I just came in (from a flight from LA to Dulles) and tried to show the rest of my family the pictures and what comes up in a wierd black and white outline on the screen. The camera traveled in my suitcase just like it did when I took it to Bangkok. It is fully charged. I hope I have not lost my pictures.
Hi, No damage, no water, no something unusual is happened to the camera (the new one: only 2 month)....
