I have an old mini digital camera which was a give-away item some years ago. It's not much of a thing but is ideal for a small project I'm working on. There is no makers name on it of course but it contains an SQ905b-PCQ chip. I cannot find a driver for it. Can anyone help please?

This of any help? Not sure the particular one you have is the same, but the links may give a starting point.

Dear Mark,

The links you provided me with are for linux and Mac applications - I'm using Windows XP. However, they pointed me in the right direction and the computer and camera are talking to each other now.
Thanks very much!

Stuart.

If it's an "old" camera, XP should be able to recognize it. Have you tried the generic USB driver from Windows?
