Loading photos onto XP

Post by Quasar »

I just bought a new camera, but am having trouble getting it to detect on my XP pro VM. I am using the PUEL version of VB and USB support is on, as my wireless card works. I downloaded the software that came with the camera(Casio Exilin Ex-V7), but whenever it comes to detecting the camera to load photos, it fails. Doesn't give me an error message, but fails to move on to the next screen. What else do I need to do?

Why not copying photos from host to guest?

Most cameras doesnt need such software. They are deteced as mass storage. Try to plugin camera at the host and copy files via Explorer.

If USB works, but not for that device, there is nothing else you can do instead of waiting for a next VBOX version.
