SCREEN MESSAGE

[SOGD]

I bought a new Digital Camera and when I plug it into the USB Port (with the Camera Switched off) a message appears on the scree: USB DSC.

Does anybody know what this means.

The USB Ports have been tested with a USB Mouse

That's your computer aknowledging that you have a new device hooked up. DSC is usually the Sony format, so I assume it's a SONY camera. Anyway, if it doesn't ask for any drivers, then you should be good to go. Go into "MY COMPUTER" and it should show a new drive labeled "Memory Stick" or somethinf like that. Click on that and you see your pictures. In XP, the wizard will come up and ask you what you want to do (i;e copy to hard drive etc.)

The people above have explained it correctly. In your Windows Explorer (My Computer), it will most likely show as removable disk. That's how it shows in Win2k at least. Haven't seen how Win9x labels it.
