Product Reviews:
Operating System Problem, April 23, 2006
Reviewer: R. L. Hughes
I purchased this camera because the specifications indicated it was
compatible with my Windows ME operating system. Although I did like the
camera, pictures could not be transferred to my computer. My call to Sony
technicians could not solve the problem of installing the USB Driver to my
computer. The technician even attempted to download the driver through the
Web Site without success. Search of the internet indicated another buyer
of this camera for use with Windows ME also encountered the same problem.
Emails from Sony technicians indicated I should update to Windows
Professional 2000 or XP Operating Systems to solve the transfer problem.
The Sony User Guide gives instructions as to how to transfer pictures to
the ME System, which even their technicians could not get to work. I
returned the camera, as I was not going to incurr addtional expense of
upgrading my computer. My return was accepted, however I did have to pay
approximately $26 for shipping expense both ways. Sony should correct
their misleading and inaccurate technical information.
