Camera Guys. Need Help.
 

I have a small Ricoh GR digital camera (not the GR II or III).
I cannot find the disks that came with the cameras and I find Ricoh's site very confusing and their support lacking. (I have a string of emails that I am forwarding at every opportunity from support people at Ricoh while looking for support)
I remember that their software made my old computer crash at regular intervals while trying to get the images off the camera and into a usable format to work with.
I am trying to find the drivers to allow my computer to recognize this camera and I may not be interpreting this correctly but it looks like I need to install a program before I install the drivers?
Anyone have any experience with these or can anyone interpret the Ricoh site to tell me what I need to run this on a laptop that utilizes Vista?
Thanks in advance.

my experience, limited, has been that newer and better camera software often includes the older stuff, so i just download the newer versions and it works.

good luck. did you check yahoogroups for your camera?

What is the storage medium? CF or SD card or is it internal/non removable?

If CF or SD you can always get a reader. Your PC may already have one built in.

Can the camera be put into a disc/PC mode? You may get it to show up as a disc drive and just pull the files that way.

Yeah, what monkeyboy said....pull the media card.

With the Logitec, the solution was to uninstall the vendor software and let Windows handle it.
Same with the Cannon camera.

Could there be a problem with the connector, and/or will other comuters recognize it?

Holy crap, I never thought of that!
I do have that drive, pulled the card and plugged it in and there it was!
You guys rock! Thanks!
