Question:

Computer can't see memory card in camera. What's the problem?

I am a recent owner of a Kodak EasyShare (Z700) digital camera. I can take 8 to 10 pictures, then I have to download the to the computer or erase them from the camera's memory. I hoped to work around this by getting an SD card for it. Now when I attempt to transfer pictures to my computer, it's like the computer isn't seeing the camera anymore. It was fine until I started using the memory card. My computer is a desktop Dell Dimension XPSt running Windows 98se on an 800 MHZ Pentium III processor and has 256 MB RAM. No printer. What's the problem and what can I do about it? Assume I know nothing about digital photography or my camera's operation (I find the owner's manual extremely confusing).

Answer:

it is possible that your card reader is not compatible with the kind of card you are using you might need to invest in one that is compatible to your SD card
Since you have an SD card, you shouldnt need to connect your camera. Did you take the SD card out, and insert it into the drive on your computer? Then you can go to Explorer (where you see all the files and drives on your computer) and click on the memory card drive.
