windows decides it does not like my usb connection for my camera and fails :-( I have been getting this a lot lately on my laptop. Have to reboot and hope and pray it works....sometimes it does sometimes it doesn't. Very frustrating!

April - there may be a software update available for your camera. You can try going to the website of who makes the camera and looking for an update.

do you have an extra cable for your camera? Maybe it could try using a different cable just to check that it isn't a bad cable.
