Hello Windows can handle downloading from a digital camera without necessarily loading the software for the camera. Just follow these steps.
1. Connect your camera thru a USB cord to the computer and switch the camera on. The computer should be able to identify it. Some digital cameras get recognized if they are on play/edit mode rather than on taking picture position.
2. Follow the screen instructions to download the pictures to your computer.
3. If nothing happens with 1 & 2 above then go to START and MY Computer and double click that icon.
4. A screen showing all drives connected to your computer will appear including D or E whatever the case maybe where your camera is connected identifying your camera by name.
5. Double click the icon with your camera connection and the software will start reading the contents of your camera and then you follow instructions on the screen.
6. The pictures on your camera will then be displayed on the window and then you can mark all or some of them for downloading to the computer.
I hope this solves your problems, if not please advise accordingly
