Unable to copy more than 1 jpeg at a time from camera via USB port on
Windows XP Home with 256mb. The copy eventually works, I just cannot select
more than 1 at a time. The jpegs average 1.2mb each.

If I take the memory chip out of the camera and put it into a memory adapter
on another computer, with Windows XP Pro and 512mb the copy / paste
operation works perfectly. Except for the extra memory and "pro" both of
these systems are recent Dells and very similar. The "home" with 256mb
cannot seem to to a paste when one "selects all".

I brought up the task manager and there didnt appear to be anything unusual
with 64mb of available memory on the "home" system. I have never seen this
before were the copy and paste fails for subsequently files. ie: The
first paste the first file gets copied o.k. and the memory error message
pops up when the 2nd attemps to be pasted. A second "paste" i click "no" to
replace the existing first file, the 2nd file then gets copied o.k. then on
the 3rd file that "not enough memory" error shows up. I switched the view
from thumbnail to detail and terminated every program that I didnt need to
no avail. There is plenty of memory available????

I wonder if deleting your Temporary Internet Files would help?

Running XP on 256 mb is bare bones when it comes to photo files. Increase to
512 mb and you will have no problem.
