[enforcer911]

ya..but for some reason the pc is not picking it up.I`m trying to install it manually.I went to my Run and was looking for my setup,exe but cant find it.all I see is the useual files.

 

[~Candy~]

Pop into my computer and double click on the cd drive.....can you see a setup.exe from there? What does the top of the disk say?

 

[enforcer911]

the only thing I see is setupxlg.txt.....damn.wheres my setup.exe at.

 

[~Candy~]

Is there an install file? Did this disk come with the camera? What does the top of it read?

 

[enforcer911]

I went to my c and d drives on my computer and still dont see that setup.exe..even on all files...wtf

 

[enforcer911]

I got the installation cd tell me how to run it manually.

I could be of more help if you would answer my questions.......

I don't quite understand why you'd be looking on the c drive for a setup.exe file for the camera if you have the driver disk on a cd.......



I went to their website, but all their download pages won't download........they do offer live support.......

Ya.I even tryed the add/remove program..but cant get the web info on my pc..man I hate this.I had this cam 4 3 months now.and I still can get it 2 work.

 

[enforcer911]

I checked my computer.aparently I have no Imagine divice manager..now what the hell do .

 

[~Candy~]

I consider myself a very patient person........but, I feel like I'm 'talking' to myself........as I indicated earlier, I could help you better if you'd take the time to answer my questions.

Can you take a look at start button, settings, control panel, system, device manager, your cdrom, properties, configuration, is auto insert checked? If not, check it and restart the computer....leave the camera cd in the drive.

ya,I went to that site.but there no help.I tryed to dl the quick install at lease to a floppy.no dice.I`ll call them..thanks.

 

[enforcer911]

ya,I went to my cd-rom and the option `disconnect` and auto insert was checked...do I uncheck them.

 

[~Candy~]

No, auto insert should be checked.......I don't understand why the cd won't auto run, unless it's not the correct cd......

What are the directories you have listed on the cd?
