What a sad story! One, probably stupid, question: Do you need drivers at all? Isn't the camera recognized (as a removable drive) as is? That happened here (with a totally different cam, though, see below). (...) > Which just reinforces my belief that we are so lucky to have this > list.

I took my digicam & digi camcorder to my recent vacations. I took picures & "films" of my children skiing, brought them home, plugged both in: the digicam (USB) was recognized as a removable disk and I just pulled all of the pictures off it into the laptop and was able to display them there. The camcorder was plugged in via firewire, I again just pulled everything off it with some (free) MS software called movie something. Both worked first time. I do admit that this was the first time I was impressed by anything windows related (and the family was suitably impressed). I'm probably just lucky. I didn't install any kind of driver or anything, not even the software that came with the devices - but it was XP SP2..
