Digital Camera not recognised
« on: May 16, 2005, 02:04:04 PM »
I think this is a multi point problem. I bought a new Praktica DCZ8VR 8 megapixel camera off eBay last week, and whatever I do the PC isn't seing it. I've loaded the drivers from the disc, and downloaded from Prakticas website, tried device manager, reloaded bios defaults, anything I can think of, and I'm stumped.

Also last week, my USB ports turned themselves off. Couldn't print or download from my USB music thingy. I've solved that (by resetting the bios defaults), but I can't get the camera to work. Any ideas

     Davewithington.......What operating system are you using ?   Do you have any other USB devices on your system ? Did you receive a manual for the camera and its software with the camera ?

    let us know

    Microsoft XP Pro is my system. yes I did have a manual with the camera and yes I have followed the instructions, and no it still doesn't work. Only device I have connected full time is my printer. I connect the USB chip when I want to load or modify files on my wifes music player.

      Davewithington..... Does your system see the camera when you plug it into a USB port ?
