Inserting an SD Memory Card(Optional)
All images and video clips taken by the camera can be stored in an SD (Secure
Digital) Memory Card. Even if the camera's power is OFF, the images saved in the
SD Memory Card are not erased. An SD Memory Card can be repeatedly read and
written. You may also expand the memory capacity up to 512MB so that you can
store additional images and video clips.
1. Make sure the camera is off.
2. Slide the battery/SD Memory Card cover in the direction of the [OPEN] arrow.
3. Insert an SD Memory Card :
The front side of the memory card (printed
arrow) should face towards the front side
of the camera.
If the card cannot be inserted, check the
orientation.
4. Close the battery/SD Memory Card cover.
To remove the SD Memory Card, make sure
the camera is off. Open the battery/SD Memory Card card cover. Press
lightly on the edge of the memory card and it will eject.
Note:
If the camera is powered-on without the card, the "NO CARD" message appears on
the LCD monitor.

Driver for camera no longer works
Hi Veronica,
It shouldn't be necessary to install the camera driver, unless your PC is running Windows 98. The camera should just work if you plug it in.
The CD includes two other pieces of software: Roxio Photosuite SE and iSee Media Photovista. None of these are really necessary for typical everyday use, and they can be replaced by free alternatives such as
Picasa (easy),
Paint.Net (easy), or
GIMP (advanced).
PS:
The Windows 98 drivers can be downloaded
here.

Try removing your batteries and leaving it off for a minute or so, then replace the batteries and switch it on again - if the problem persist it is possible that the issue is with the contact points (dirt most likely, could be damage but that is very rare with cameras using SD type cards) - usually very difficult to reach, but if you can try and clean it.
