Hi yorkshire lass

Sorry,
I think that I did not make myself very clear I meant that the Camera should show up in computer along with the other drives.
As for automatic imports you can stop this by going to Control Panel - cd's and other media playback, look for an entry under media for your camera and change the entry so that it does not automatically import photos, but gives you a dialogue asking you what you want to do. ie, open folder

I hope this makes sense as I am translating from my German vista, if not let me know and I will change my language and try again

Ps the camera has to be connected while changing the autostart
