You can try going to Olympusamerica.com, they have the
drivers there that you will need.

In such circumstances, whether it is Windows ME or 2000 or
XP, look for a folder in the hard drive that contains the
Windows installation files. The naming of this particular
folder, unfortunately, is at the discretion of the OEM but
look for it; it would contain *.CAB files.
 
For the 9x platforms, it was often stored under c:\windows\options\cabs

The BEST way is not to connect the camera to the PC. You don't need to use Camedia software
(sp ?)

You use a SanDisk USB memory card reader. You remove the memory card (what are you using,
SmartMedia ?) from the camera (what model ?) and put the card in the memory card reader and
you then access it as a drive letter such as "G:". This way you save battery power on the
camera and you can access the JPEGS (TIFFs or whatever) like any other data file on any
read/write disk drive.

I personally use the SanDisk 6-in-1 reader which can read SmartMedia, Compact Flash and four
other memory card types.

As others have noted, this is a Win2K News Group not a WinME News Group so next time please
post On Topic!

On another note, in the future for Digital Camera related questions, you can also post to;
alt.photography
