I've got a desktop and laptop, both with WinXP Home. On
the laptop, when I plug my digital camera in via USB, I
get the Windows dialog asking what I'd like to do with
the photos -- upload, print, etc.

But on my desktop, when I plug in the camera, nothing
happens. I have to go into Explorer and navigate to the
removable drive, and do it all manually.

Is there a setting I can "turn on" or reset, to have this
handy dialog pop up on my desktop?

Thanks very much!
