2000, ME .XP.

Bus controllers].

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

In addition, double-click on the USB Universal Host Controller and the USB

 

Root Hub to check if the Device Status states "This device is working properly".

[Case 7]

When using the USB hub.

 

 

 

 

 

 

There may be a problem in connecting the camera to the PC through the USB

 

hub if the PC and the hub are not compatible. Wherever possible, connect the

 

camera to the PC directly.

 

 

 

 

 

[Case 8]

Are other USB cables connected to the PC?

 

 

 

 

The camera may malfunction when it is connected to the PC at the same time

 

as another USB cable. In this case, disconnect the other USB cable, and

 

connect only one USB cable to the camera.

(Settings)

entries with a yellow question

mark(?) beside them or devices with an exclamation mark(!) beside them. Right-click on the entry with the question(?) or exclamation (!) mark and select "Remove". Restart the PC and connect the camera the again. For Windows 98 PC, remove the camera driver also, restart the PC, and then reinstall the camera driver.

Double-click on the entry with the question (?) or exclamation (!) mark, click the "Driver" tab, and click [Update Driver] or [Reinstall Driver]. If a message appears asking you to specify the location of the appropriate device driver, specify "USB Driver" in the CD supplied.
