Connecting to a PC

[Preparation]

If your PC uses Microsoft Windows® 98 or 98SE, a USB driver must be installed from

the CD that is included. If you are using a newer Microsoft operating system such as Windows ME, Windows 2000, or Windows XP (Home Edition/Professional), no USB driver needs to be installed. Your PC should recognize the camera automatically.

1 Insert the Memory Card into the camera, and turn the power switch to [ON].

2 Connect the camera to a PC via the supplied USB connection cable 1.

The drive is shown on the screen.

When connecting to a PC, we recommend using the AC adaptor as the power source. (P14)
