I have an Olympus Stylus 850 SW. It takes pictures fine. I have a new computer with Win 2003. I can't find original olympus s/w for downloading pix... but have Zoombrowser EX. Z does not recognize my olympus's memory card. When I turn on the camera I get the option to do pc/custom print - but then it says "Battery Empty" - however, if I unplug usb cable... battery shows full. How do I get these pix off the camera?
Consider NOT connecting your camera to your computer.
The best way to download pictures from your camera to your computer involves removing the memory card from the camera and plugging it into a card reader (either built-in to the computer or connected via USB or FireWire). This is likely to be faster than connecting the camera to the computer, and won't run down your camera's batteries.
Once the card is plugged in, it will appear to your computer as a removable drive. You can use the operating system's drag&drop facility to copy pictures from the card to the computer's hard drive, the same way you copy any other files. Or you can use any photo cataloging program.
