Kodak DC 25 camera and files.
I used to own this digital camera, picked it up in 1997. I have an older iomega zip drive, 100meg, that i have the dc25 files stored on. I have tried to find the software via a google search, but it seems unavailable. I have a few photos of my parents at their 50th wedding lunch i would like to try and get off the disk. Whats the chances any one on the list used the camera and has the software.??? None i suppose. I cannot remember if the zip drive(plugs into the printer port) required software or not.

Re: Kodak DC 25 camera and files.
I have a DC50... it's got zoom! it was the first digital camera my company bought. I used it extensively until we bought a 1.3Mpix Olympus. Actually I am on the lookout for a serial cable for the Kodak should anyone have one around?? Cheers, Drew.

Yes the zip drive requires software. The latest drivers are available from Iomega.

Re: Kodak DC 25 camera and files.
The problem I had was that the Iomega software replaced a critical dll, which caused a BSoD at some random time after boot up. Removing the software did not remove the bad driver. System recovery was painful and incomplete. If you're using WinXP you may not have any problems. David J Brooks wrote: Loaded up the driver and it seems to work.
