my camera hates me. pleassee help me. driver software doesnt work.?

Question

okay. my camera is a Fujifilm Finepix F480. my laptop is an HP Pavilion dv2310us Entertainment Notebook PC. i downloaded the camera's cd into my computer, did everything the directions told me to do, updated all of the software onto my computer from the camera's website and for windows in general, made sure the device driver software was working and updated

but

for some reason, everytime i try to plug my camera into my computer, it says its going to download everything and work, but then it says it failed because it says "Device driver software was not successfully installed". it also says, however, that the Samsung HM160JI SCSI Disk Device is installed properly...

I DONT KNOW WHAT TO DO :(

does anyone have any idea what i should do?

Answer 1

I would say you need a new driver. I would also suggest that you try and let windows find the right driver.

Uninstall the new driver.
Reboot.
Plug in the camera and wait. Windows will find the item sooner or later and will either find a driver, or ask for one. When this happens, if a windows driver does not exist, point the driver install wizard to the folder where you downloaded the CD. See if the driver can be loaded that way.
