USB devices can sometimes be lost, due to "Phantoms"
Plugging in a USB device to a different USB channel, can
result in a device not being re-enumerated. Open Device
Manager (System, Hardware) in Control Panel. Click View
tic (check) option "Show Hidden Devices". Expand the
"Imaging Devices" category by clicking the +. Check the
list for your camera, but shown slightly grayed out. If
found Right click and choose Uninstall. Reboot your PC
and then Re-connect the camera. XP should redetect &
load necessary drivers.
