Olympus is the best way to go to fix it. Or you might be able to find a repair person who does it. Call a Ritz Camera or Wolf Camera and see if they know of anyone who does repairs. You might get lucky and find someone.Unless you can find a Disassembly instruction online...i tried but had no luck..ill keep trying though!

my camera wont take pictures clearly and on the screen the flash signal is blinking and next to it theres something that says E:91:01 how can i fix it

The problem you are describing is a problem with a sensor that is behind the lens cover door on the front of the camera. It seems to have failed and needs to be replaced. Following are the instructions to send your camera to Olympus for service.

Olympus will charge a flat rate repair fee for this product if beyond the one year factory warranty or the warranty is voided. The cost is $83 plus your local sales tax. This covers parts and labor, factory cleaning and diagnostic check, 6 month warranty and the cost of shipping the product back to you is all included in that price.

Yes you can. All digital cameras have a cd whether it came with it or not.

aiya, sameish thing happened to me. i have the olympus FE230.. and i actually dropped it on the wood floor, so whenever i turn on the camera light is red, and the lcd is white.
i can still take pictures though...

Card corruption that may have been caused by not safely removing camera before actually unplugging it.
May need to use some sort of media recovery to get pictures back:

Press the power button on and hold it down while extending and twisting the telescopic zoom lens. It might fix your problem. In any case it could not make it worse Good luck!
