Why oh why do people insist on stuffing that driver cd into XP ?
If you don't need that "yet one more" graphics program that's on the cd, and you don't really need all that bells and whistles software, and if you definately don't need that extra software that's going to sit there in your system tray waiting for you to plug your camera's USB lead in, then DON'T let that cd anywhere near your PC !!!
Your camera is equipped with USB 2.0.
XP automatically detects your camera as a mass-storage device and assigns it the next available drive letter as soona s you plug in its' USB lead. You don't need to put that cd in your PC

Help! I'm trying to install the driver for my Canon SD1000 digital camera.
During the installation process there is a problem. When I go into the device
manager, there is an exclamation mark next to the rather generic title still
digital camera. When I click on that I get the message that the driver
couldn't install because an earlier "instance" of it is still in memory. I've
tried uninstalling it and restarting. I've uninstalled, shut down, and
restarted. I've uninstalled in safe mode, shut down, and restarted. Each
time, there is a "problem" during the installation. How do I get rid of the
earlier "instance" of this driver? This same thing happened with an older
Canon camera. I even tried another brand borrowed from a friend. Same thing!
There is no problem with this on one of the computers at work, which also
runs XP. It installs just fine.
