Answer» Ok now I am not very computer savy so here it goes: My girlfriend bought me a Digicam (fugifilm E510 w/5.2 mega pixels) First time we WENT to "upload" the pics we took we took the cam pluged the usb cable in the cam then in the PC . Turned on the cam and a window poped up that asked how I wanted to save/dl or print the pics. The option we always picked was "save to desktop " and that was it. Just a week ago I found that it took little maybe 30seconds vids. SO I pluged it in the same way and it worked all fine.

Ok now I am not very computer savy so here it goes:

My girlfriend bought me a Digicam (fugifilm E510 w/5.2 mega pixels)
First time we WENT to "upload" the pics we took we took the cam pluged the usb cable in the cam then in the PC . Turned on the cam and a window poped up that asked how I wanted to save/dl or print the pics. The option we always picked was "save to desktop " and that was it. Just a week ago I found that it took little maybe 30seconds vids. SO I pluged it in the same way and it worked all fine. Now yesterday I went to upload some pics of some things I want to sell. and NO window pops up giving me any choice.

Any idea's ?
