Hi Bret and others, I have a rather old Olympus digital camera, and I would like to download its pictures in FreeDOS with the USB cable, but this isn't working. In fact, it is still worse: it does work, but only 1 out of 10 times.
(It works in Linux alright, but I take recourse to Linux only for those things that cannot be done in FreeDOS.) In a series of tests, the possibilities that the fault is in (1) motherboard, (2) cable, (3) USB port, or (4) picture memory card have all been excluded. I download pictures regularly in FreeDOS from another Olympus camera with the USB cable. There were problems in the beginning too, but by trial and error I found a value for the /X parameter that makes it work reliably. For the current camera, I tried the same /X trick, but it did not work. Is there any other parameter or option which I should try? Thanks, Marcos PS: I remember what you said about the USB architecture being "flaky", so I'm not entertaining overly high hopes with this camera. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Everyone hates slow websites.
