i have windows xp and my computer will only reconize my digital camera as a disk drive. I have installed the drivers that came with the camera. it is a kodak cx7310 digital camera. problem is i have to click though folders to see my pics and i cant use advanced camera features i.e veiw pics without going though the folders, check approx numer of pics left check battery life ect. is there any way to get windows to reconize my camera as a camera so it will show up in the camera section of the control panel. this would make it easier to use. it would be nice if i could still access it as a drive also, so that i can put files on it.

many cameras have outdated drivers. Contact both Kodak and the vendor that sold you the camera to find out which driver you have versus which one you need. Hope it helps.

If the drivers are outdated, you might be able to find the latest ones from the Kodak support web page. They normally post them there for download.
 
Kodak changes drivers for their cameras faster than a debutante changes outfits. >;-/ IIRC, the cx7300 is a few years old, so if you're installing a driver from a Kodak camera CD that's more than 6 months old it's probably outdated, based on my experience. Go to Kodak's WWW site and download the latest software for your camera. If you don't have it, seek out a broadband connection - drivers tend to get large enough to demand a fast connection.Also make sure your version of XP is updated. Even "Service Pack 2" had a lot of updates for video problems.In spite of the hype, XP never really promised, let alone delivered, true "plug and play" for every peripheral. That's why getting the latest driver update from Kodak for your camera is so important. If you still have problems, bug Kodak about them. They have to listen to consumers if they want to sell their stuff.
