Does anyone know how to get my copy/open wizard to reappear when I plug in a
USB device(camera).
It used to appear. I don't know why it has stopped.

Right-click on the device in My Computer and go properties, go to the autorun
tab and look around. In particular choose Pictures from the dropdown list and
make sure it's not set to "Take no action"
At least this works for CD's and the like, I haven't used USB devices much
but those I have used seem to use a similar autorun mechanism...

To those of you who have lost the use of the Camera Wizard I have confirmed
that there is a conflict between Real Player 10 and the Wizard preventing the
Wizard from running. However, I have found the cause and have a solution.

There is an incompatability between the Wizard and the file REALSCHED.EXE,
which runs on startup. Disable it with the Task Manager and the functionality
of the Wizard is restored. You can permanently disable REALSCHED from running
on startup using MSCONFIG. However, it will become active again any time Real
Player is started. But it is definitely NOT necessary to uninstall Real
Player to mitigate the conflict and get the Wizard working again.

I have confirmed that this file is the cause of the problem, but have no
idea just what purpose it serves other than taking up memory. It schedules
something or other. Perhaps it is the source of those %$#@@#$$# Real Player
pop-up messages!
