61824	2002-07-12 05:00:00	I have just bought a digital camera (Sony DSC P71) But I do not like the editing software that came with it. It is called Pixela & I really can't understand it at all! The cd rom also had a usb driver on it & something called DirectX I have Picture Gear photo editing disc that I installed, but it won't work with my camera, it says that the cables aren't connected properly. which they are. I don't know much about cameras or the software, but surely I should be able to use any editing software? How do I get my computer to recognise the camera & new software? Do I have to get another driver or what? If I do, how do I do it? Thanks	pipi (1000)

If your computer supports USB (Windows 98 and above) one solution would be to use a plug-in USB reader for the Sony Memory Stick that the camers uses, which would then show up just like another disk drive, allowing you to extract the jpg files to any photo editing suite.	godfather (25)
