if you install the driver and plug in the cam on USB, it should just make it a drive in my computer so you can just browse the files on the cam and copy them off just like you would any other drive.
least thats how the cams ive used work |

If its a digital camera, Windows ME 'should' find it as a removable drive. TWAIN is predominantly for scanners.....not cameras. |

The OS needs to know that the camera is there before that Ifranview program will work. |

Worth upgrading to XP though if your machine can handle it, about 50 -60 quid for OEM Home from Ebuyer i think. |
