Lost my installation cd,.don't know what to do.
Try a different USB port. Also, make sure you got the drivers for the right camera. Sometimes devices like this need to have the driver installed BEFORE you connect it to your PC. Others require the device to be connected before you install the drivers. I would suggest trying both ways. Uninstall the software between each attempt.

Thanks for your offers to rendering further assistance. I think, however, that I have already spent far too much time on this uninteresting matter and I am sorry having bothered you. I will just leave it unsolved. I am glad I got to know FixYa so I know where to go next time there is a problem.
