Im trying to install Pentax ACDsee into my PC, but just before installation it says that I need to install Windows Media Player 7.1 or better then try again.
I went on Media Player and checked for updates and it told me I have Media 9 and all its components, there are no upgrades available, so I guess thats as good as it gets.
I tried to install ACDsee again and got the same problem.

Can any boffs help? Please? Any ideas?

I am running Media Player 11 so there is something wrong. You are running Windows XP aren't you?

Im running Windows Millennium, the same as my dad and sister and they have no probs. I was looking at the Media 11 last night and nearly downloaded it but thought perhaps I should sort out what Ive got first. OR should I put what Ive got in recycle bin and just download Media 11 from there?

I dont know...I hit things with a hammer for a living.

Some modern software might only work with Win2000 / XP variants ... check the docs.

If that is the case then it's either different cam software or updating the OS (ooooocccchhhhhh)

Every day is a school day ...........

How fast and how expensive ...... the same question...

OK just checked the manual, it says Windows 98/98SE/ME etc are adequate and I need Media 9 to play MPeg video which I supposedly have.

Do you really need the ACDSee software?

Have you tried just plugging the camera USB lead into the camera and the computer, most of the modern machines will now automatically sort out what it is you have plugged in, and probably will let you view any pictures that are on the camera in a folder on your machine.

We need them more than a lot of the junk you hear on the radio, sorry I just couldn't resist.

Imagine him with a beard.

Photos of me at that age are identical, but the milkman did stop delivering just after he was born. lol*tongue*
