Simo Hayha Posted June 5, 2003 Share Posted June 5, 2003 Welcome to MSFN, and you have to install the software for your digital camera, thats how I had to do it. Most digital camera companies offer their software on their website.Hope this helped you.Regards,Simo H. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron Posted June 5, 2003 Share Posted June 5, 2003 Don't forget to enable Windows Image Acquisition (WIA) Service.Details on how to do that is at:http://www.MSFN.org/win2k3/services.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlo Posted June 6, 2003 Author Share Posted June 6, 2003 Hi,Thanks for the answers , i already have enabled WIA , but it wont work (the wizard will show up, but only a few options to chose , not a option to copy the pictures to a specified location). When i used XP , the digital camera wizard was working perfect for me because the pictures on the camera (sony cybershot P51) automaticly renamed when the wizard copys them to my computer.I will try to find software for the camera what can do the job for me..anyway thanks for the quick reply.Greetings,Carlo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killinghall Posted June 14, 2003 Share Posted June 14, 2003 I use the Canon Powershot G2, and W2K3 presented me a problem while trying to install the USUAL Windows XP WIA drivers for W2K3. The setup file couldn't find a 'driver file' it was looking for. I had to manual redirect the system to find the .inf files required. The wizards to confirm which programs should open appeared, but i never got beyond to downloading more than 1 picture, after which the application (in my case, Photoshop) hung. A similar thing happened as I tried to retrieve the pics using M$ Scanner and Camera wizard from the Control Panel.I uninstalled the drivers and reinstalled them using Windows 98/2000 WIA drivers from Canon's site. Everything works perfectly now. The Canon import interface in Photoshop is an earlier version and looks dated though. But not a glitch anymore.For those of you using the Canon Powershot G2, this might be of some help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
