USING THE CAMERA WITH A COMPUTER
IMPORTANT!
• See the “Read me” file that comes with Photo Loader for
information about what you need to do to be able to use
existing libraries after updating, re-installing Photo Loader,
or moving Photo Loader to another computer. If you do not
follow the correct procedure for installation, you may not be
able to display existing library information or calendar
format HTML files with Photo Loader, or imported image
files may be deleted.
Checking Your Computer’s DirectX Version
In order to manage images using Photo Loader, your computer
also needs to have Microsoft DirectX 9.0 or higher installed. You
can check the installed version of Microsoft DirectX using your
PC’s DirectX Diagnostic Tool.
1. On your computer, click “Start”, “All
Programs”, “Accessories”, “System Tools”
and then “System Information”.
2. On the “Tools” menu, select “DirectX
Diagnostic Tool”.
3. On the “System” tab, check to make sure that
the “DirectX Version” is 9.0 or higher.
4. Click “Exit” to exit the DirectX Diagnostic
Tool.
• If your PC already has Microsoft DirectX 9.0 or higher
installed, you do not need to install Microsoft DirectX 9.0c
from the bundled CD-ROM.
• If your computer does not have Microsoft DirectX 9.0 or
higher installed, install Microsoft DirectX 9.0c from the
bundled CD-ROM.
