Connecting to a PC

[Preparation]

If your PC uses Microsoft Windows® 98 or Windows® 98 Second Edition, 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.
