If you have a computer with Windows XP, you do not have to install any special drivers.
Just connect the camera to the computer and then turn on the camera. The first time you do this, Windows will install the correct drivers.
To verify, use "My computer" or "Windows Explorer" to look at your computer devices and you should find a new device called "Removable Disk".
That will be your camera.
Click on the plus sign + next to Removable Disk and you should see a folder. Open that folder and you maybe another one that is inside and you will find your photos.

I have just purchased the Minolta F5 and have installed the software so I can download the pictures. I cannot retrieve anything from the camera. Please help as I have 8 days to return the camera.
