Laptop or desktop??
I don't follow why you need a CD anyway, you could either download the software from the Camera manufacturers site, or simply copy the photo's off the memory card (assuming you have a card reader)
I can't think of ANY bundled software worth having.0 -
wow that was quick Browntoa, it shows DVD-RW Drive(F:) when clicked on nothing happened, now i have tried again and allsorts keep popping up and disappearing.
no i dont have Itunes installed but i think my son did once when he first got his ipod0 -
CHR, desktop,thanks never thought of downloading software as for having a card reader im sure i have but still old school afraid and never really looked into it,silly i know but i still would like to fix the problem if possible thanks0

You don't need to have the camera software installed in order to be able to use it. If you plug the camera in, Windows will see it as a removable drive. You can use Windows built in File and Photo Transfer Wizard to move them to your desktop.0
