This cheap Vivitar Digital Camera and XP are about to make me lose it. Under normal conditions, after plugging in the camera and powering up, the device is recognized. However, it seems to keep losing its ass once every other week. It shows up in device manager as having no problems, it powers up in the system tray, but no show in "my computer". Why can't life be simple, I sure as hell do not want to roll back the system again....At first I though I had it figured out from killing the logitech keyboard, which would temporary solve the usb problem. I assume that microsoft does not like logitech and wants all consumers to buy microsoft keyboards and mice...
