i am running win xp  but when i plug my digital camera in (olympus c120) nothing pops up to recognize it, where as before a pop up box came up asking wether i want to copy, play, slide show etc  how can i get that pop up to come again

Ingo.....How long have you been using the camera with that pc ?
Have you tried .....shutting down the pc , plugging in the camera ( which must be turned on ) then start the pc ....it should now recognize new hardware being installed .
let us know

have tried doing what you say but all i get in the bottom corner is that it tells me to safely remove the device , have used the camera with computer for about  14 months

Hello how are you? I think you connect your cammera to USB port. So, first of all try to change the port. I mean if you are connecting to first USB port, now connect the other one. Secondly, goto device manager and select "scan for hardware changes" in Action menu. Be sure to select the top most in the category list before selecting "scan forhardware changes".
Then install the drivers for your camera. Hope this will solve your problem.
Take care of you and others and be happy.

you need to install drivers from the cd that came with your camera....also make sure in your BIOS that polug and play system is enabled
