A clients PC imagaing isn't working so she wants me to take her camera and download the pictures ann burn a CD that she is suppyling.
Would she be able to take this CD and open them on her PC?

what do you mean by 'A clients PC imagaing isn't working'?

shouldn't be a problem.

nairn - she obviously means that her client's PC can't imagine viewing photos. By burning the photos to CD the PC can view them when it's feeling better, or is more well rested.

PCs can imagine?!

NairnWhen they connect the camera it used to open up the images
automatically. Then a friend dicked around with it to do a slide show. Now nothing comes up.
I don't do windows and only looked at it for about 5 minutes
and couldn't figure it out.

hahaaha you two are funny!

Aha.
When the camera's plugged in , she can't use Windows Explorer to view the files on the attached device?
Regardless - that shouldn't affect how images are viewed from CD. If it does, you should check that the file type settings aren't fucked (Windows Explorer \ Tools \ Folder Options \ Filetypes).
At least, you could try reinstalling the camera software, that should reset everything to how it was and should be.

if you burn it to a cd, just be sure that what ever software you are using doesnt use "multi-session" and it should work on any device. also, be sure you have the ".jpg" or whatever file extension after the files.
Nothing worse than getting a cd from a mac and not knowing what type of files they are because the mac lopped of the extension.

right-click start _ > goto explore.
when the window pops up look down the left hand side and you see the camera name or a "removable disk" icon which would be the camer (assuming she has no other external drives attached
- mrdobolina0
"my computer" will show any removable storage also.
