There is no special software needed. Just plug the camera into a USB port and let the computer do the found new hardware thing. Don't touch the PC untill it's done. With only 16mb of internal memory you're going to make a bunch of trips back and forth.

I feel your pain. My lease partner bought the same camera for us to use on a whim from Walmart. We had several problems with it. Night pictures sucked, it fried one of my SD cards. It wasn't untill I saw a post here, perhaps yours did I realize we were not alone. The picture quality wasn't bad when it would take one but there is a lot to be saidfor a time and date stamp and a camera that works all the time.

I can only assume you bought that one because money was an issue, us too. We bought a Moultrie D-40 from Bass Pro Shops for $99.00. Let me tell you it's worth the extra 40 bucks to have one that works. We have had zero problems with it. I know there are people that have that .3 Wildview and love it butI'm not one of them.
