See It in Action, Then Do It Yourself

Using Windows XP to transfer digital photos from your camera to your computer is a snap.
1. Connect your digital camera to the computer. This is usually accomplished with a Universal Serial Bus cable. (Or connect your memory card, and memory card reader if required, to your computer.)
2. If your camera is Plug and Play, the Scanner and Camera Wizard starts. Click Next, and follow the instruction in the wizard. Do you have an older camera that is not Plug and Play?
3. If the wizard asks which action you would like to perform, select Always do the selected action, highlight Copy pictures to a folder, and then click OK.
4. The wizard will ask which photos you want to transfer. All photos in your camera, or on the memory card, are automatically selected. To change the selection, click Clear All and select the photos you want to transfer, and then click Next.
5. The wizard places your photos in the My Pictures folder on your computer unless you choose another location. Choose a location and then click Next.
6. When the transfer is complete, select what you want to do next and click Next. If you chose Nothing in the previous step, click Finish. The folder with your newly transferred photos opens.
