Archived from groups: alt.comp.periphs.dcameras Does anyone know where I can obtain the original Windows installation software (disks or download) for a Kodak DC40 digital camera? I've got the firmware, updated TWAIN driver, and PhotoEnhancer software, but Windows 98 won't add the device without the installation files. Tried connecting to the camera using TWAIN support in PaperPort, but the Kodak Digital Camera Image Access helper app says it couldn't access the camera. Have googled my a55 off trying to figure this out.
Any help would be appreciated. Archived from groups: alt.comp.periphs.dcameras wjgates778@yahoo.com (WJ Gates) wrote in message news. Does anyone know where I can obtain the original Windows installation software (disks or download) for a Kodak DC40 digital camera?. Already been to the Kodak website (thanks for the pointers, though). I've dl'd the software they have, installed it, but it isn't what's required to get Windows to recognize the camera (using the Scanner/Camera Wizard to add the camera). It wants the 'installation disk' (with a.INF file).
The only cameras Windows recognizes are way newer than this one (circa 1996). It's not USB (it's serial cable), so no hotplug. It's got a TWAIN driver, but I can't get software to access it. I hope it's not a cable/hardware problem (the camera seems to work fine on its own), but I really can't be sure without installing it 'the right way'. And for that I need the original installation disks. If anyone happens to have the software, or know somewhere I can get it, I'd be really grateful.

Go to the following link using Kodak GO technology. On the DC40 Support page choose the 'Downloads and Upgrades' then choose the first option or the Y2K update. There is additional information on that page. Let me know if you are successful.
You can contact me offline if you like at my noted address. I will try to find the original CD to see what is on it.

What twain program is accessing the camera? You mentioned Photoenhancer, which should work. I should be able to find the original software but please note that copies are rare. Let me know all the particulars. You mentioned the camera scanner wizard which tells me you are likely using Win XP? The DC40 will not work on that system. Talk to you soon, let me know the specifics.
