Well, they're not exactly right. I'm able to connect the camera to my

Hi Ann
All you need is a card reader to use Windows 98. I now have WinXP but
I still download to the computer via a card reader.
Peter is right - the Pentax software doesn't run on 98 so, if you
shoot RAW you need another raw converter.
One you could consider is Silkypix - it has a free mode an
More likely is the fact that Microsoft no longer support W98, and ME was a

There is absolutely no reason to upgrade. Don't use the Pentax software
(which is terrible), and don't use the USB connection. Get a cheap
card-reader and use it to download pictures and upload firmware.

What do you use it for, then?
The Pentax LAB and BROWSER are slow and do poor RAW conversions
compared to almost any other RAW converter I've tested.

Ann,
Most card reader packages include a CD that has the Win 98SE driver on
it and instructions how to install the driver. Your laptop probably
only supports USB 1.1, but be sure to get a card reader that uses USB

Probably not if you drown it, as well. Drowning cameras has never been
good for their longevity.
The older, purely mechanical cameras could sometimes withstand a dunking
depending on water conditions and the care taken to clean and dry them.
Cameras with electronics were more difficult to save.

Nope, running Photoshop 7 still. When you have and need three
