Hi there!
I recently got a new computer and suprise suprise Im having trouble with windows vista! I have a Samsung Digimax D53 and I couldnt download the driver from the cd which Ive noticed is a common problem, Also when I try to connect my camera via the usb cord vista comes up with an error message saying that "USB device no recognized' Now here comes the frustration because last week I found a solution on here for a way to by pass the driver and view my pics via autoplay and windows picture viewer and I believe I found the solution on here but I cant find that thread again and I was silly and didnt write down what I did sooooo......I am back to square one where I sit here cursing windows vista and the makers at microsoft because I cant do something as simple as downloading my pictures to my computer.
I would appreciate any help on the subject. I would like to avoid buying a card reader if I can its just another thing to plug into my computer. but if thats the only way to do it then so be it.
but thanks so much for your time and for any suggestions
Cheers, Mel
Try 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 such as Windows Photo Gallery or Picasa.

Mind did the same thing. Try taking out the memory card. If it works after that, you'll have to buy a new memory card.

If it is older software, it is probably not made to run on Vista Operating Systems. I would check the market for something Vista compatible. Samsung might even have updated software on their website for purchase. But you might want to do some bargain hunting around the net first.
Or you could always just connect the camera to the computer and copy the pictures into the "My pictures" folder on your computer. And with Vista's "Windows Image Viewer" (or something of that nature) you can do basic things to the photos, like adjust brightness, contrast, or saturation. You could also crop the photos, and more. The Vista provided image viewer is probably equal to what you could do to photos in the software.
