Camera Problems
I have a somewhat old(-ish) camera.
It worked perfectly fine with my old computer, but apparently there are no Vista drivers.
Is there any way I can emulate XP or something to get my camera to work with Vista?
Edit: It's been bugging me for a while, but I'm just now inquiring about a solution, meh.
Also; inb4vistafag, inb4getxp

Re: Camera Problems
But not inb4google or inb4calltechsupport.
If its a camera made within the last two years, its going to have Vista drivers, or at least 64-bit drivers. If its older--upgrade.

Re: Camera Problems
Then call again. All tech support is like this. Or, find a site.

Re: Camera Problems
Holy crap! If only it was a program, and not drivers that I needed!

Re: Camera Problems
Comparability mode, i.e. so you can run the ♥♥♥♥ drivers. Don't be a smartass.

Re: Camera Problems
So yeah.
I went to download the drivers and try this etc, but the download is down.
Anyone know of sites that host mirrors for camera drivers?

Re: Camera Problems
Yeah, that's a widely needed thing on the internet. Looks like you're SOL and need to call tech support.
