As above, have a lumix DMC FS-20, about 3 years old now. Just had a new pc running windows 7. Struggling to find the correct download to run these together even after trying Panasonics website. Anyone with similar??:money:
I like the thanks button, but ,please, an I agree button.

Will the grammar and spelling police respect I do make grammatical errors, and have carp spelling, no need to remind me.;)

Always expect the unexpected:eek:and then you won't be dissapointed

    If the software won't install on the newer OS, just take the card (SD I assume) out of the camera and read it directly on the PC - that's what I do. If you don't have a card reader, you would obviously have to buy one, but it's not expensive for an external USB one.

    Yep, been through that, says it's compatible but still won't work, (but thanks for the help;))

    Getting away at present by downloading the camera to the old pc, (that's now for the grandkids games), and sending them back to the new one.

    Yep sd or mini sd. :wall::wall::wall::wall:, we do actually have an all in one printer so could do this :T:T:T

    Would still like the full function on the new pc tho', ;)

    Of course not...are you completely mad? ;)

    Perhaps suggest that you want to see for yourself so that you can describe the steps more precisely. :)

    It is generally easier to just use the SD (or whatever) card, as a generic approach rather than plonking camera specific software on your PC. If nothing else, you don't need to have the camera charged.
