Had the EXACT same problem with the CW450 model. I called support because I was mad and wanted it replaced. The support tech helped me through the issue. The answer is- NiMH. Alkaline batteries are unstable and not powerful enough for use with this camera even though the camera supports it. He asked me what I was using and I told him Alkaline. He said try some NiMH right now- by dumb luck, I had a charger in the wall with nickel batteries. This is what he had me do:
Put the NiMH batteries in. Take out your SD card. Turn on your camera. Go to options and go to memory kit and format. Go to options and do a factory reset by selecting Reset All. Turn off the camera. Put your memory card back in. Turn it back on and go crazy with it trying to take video and pictures.
I have been messing with it for an hour now and it works perfectly. He told me to test it for at least 2 days and if it still malfunctions they will send me a new one. If the fix I shared with you didn't work call them up and work with them. 1-866-694-7633 if you are under warranty they will replace it for you.

SD cards top out at 2GB, and any of them may be used with the camera. Any larger cards are SDHC cards and will not work.

Remove the battery for 15mins. replace the battery then go to the camera's MENU and set the Date & Time.

You may use any SD or SDHC card. Personally, I'd stick with one of the major brands, but there's little to choose between them.One school of thought says get the largest memory card you can afford. Another school of thought says get at least two memory cards and switch between them regularly so that if something happens to one of the cards you still have half of your pictures.

The M407 uses standard AA batteries, rechargeable or disposable. If you want to use rechargeables, you should be able to buy a suitable charger at just about any department, electronics, or office-supply store.

The camera won't charge the batteries, and never try to charge disposable batteries in a charger.

1. With no card in the camera, go into the menu and find "format"...follow the on-screen instructions to erase the internal memory. 2. Insert the card and again, go into the menu and do the format thing again. Do not stop to select one of the choices the camera has offered before. Go straight into the menu and format from there.

HiDifferent cameras have different cords which connect to your laptop USB. You can connect to your laptop using the cord or you can also remove the memory card and insert it in the card reader to access the memory card.Regards.Javeed

You didn't specify what type of card you have, so I'm going to assume you have an SD or SDHC card.SD and SDHC cards have a slide switch along one edge. The position farthest from the metal contacts locks the card, protecting it from writes. The position nearest the contacts unlocks the card.

CausesThese errors display because the lens will not move. There are several reasons why the camera lens might not move:

• something is blocking the lens
• the firmware version is old
• the camera has been abused
• foreign material is inside the lensor
• the lens is loose or completely off the track

SolutionFollow all of the steps listed below.

1. Perform a power reset on the camera.
   1. Turn off the camera and remove any optional memory card.
   2. Hold the ON/OFF switch in the ON position until the HP logo displays and then disappears.
   3. The camera is now reset. When the camera is turned back on it should prompt for the date and time.
2. If the camera does not display an error after the reset and appears to be functioning properly, it is imperative to check and update the firmware. The firmware update corrects the lens positioning issue that can cause E104, E105, and E106 errors with the camera.Determine if an update is needed by following the steps below to check the current version of the firmware on the camera:
   1. Before turning the camera on, press and hold the Flash button.
   2. While the Flash button is depressed, turn on the camera. A Service Screen displays.
   3. Located at the bottom of the screen is an entry, F/W.
   4. If the version of the firmware is lower than 1.12, then the firmware update is required and should be performed immediately.

It means the power left in the battery is almost nearing minimum and further it may lead to dead condition. Please charge it as soon as you see this warning message else it may lead to degraded battery life or will not get charged when you charge it with the charger.
