Hi,
I have a problem in that XP wont detect my camera when I plaug it in the USB...I used to get the wizard appear and ask what I wanted to do but not any more.It also wont detect any USB flash drives.
They show up in control panel under portable media devices and even in the Hardware devices.
is there anyway I can get the wizard to show again...thanks.

thanks for the reply.
I have just tried that and when I click properties the menu that shows up is like a shortcut menu (if that makes sense)



thanks
 
aye its a bit of a strange one...I looked in disk management in admin tools and the camera is listed in the drives section.I clicked properties on it there and found the autoplay option.It was set to prompt me each time.I have tried the other options but still no joy.

Thing is though it doesnt just happen with the camera...it happens with pendrives too :confused:

Thanks for the advice though :)
