Which model samsung
Has the PC got a firewire port
You cannot buy a FireWire-to-USB cable
If, say, your notebook / laptop computer doesn't have a port for a FireWire (IEEE 1394) lead, but your video camera does, you can't use a FireWire-to-USB cable to link the camera to the computer. There is no such thing, because FireWire and USB are completely different standards; you can't convert the flow of data of one of them into a flow of data for the other.

It seems you need to install the driver and image mixer software
Hope it goes well

So i installed image mixer and the patch for it and tried to install the other driver but it says: Continuing the installation of this may impair or destabliilize the function of your computer. It has not passed windows compatibility testing.

Samsung manual says to click OK to carry on
A number of programmes do this, and it is a straight choice between using the programme or not
Defragment the drive and set a restore point, install the driver, as per the instructions in the samsung manual

i did so and installed it and it doesnt do anything when i plug in the camera.
Edit: when i turn on the camera while its in the dock, i set it to PC-Cam. Is this right? The only other mode options are USB mass storage and Pictbridge

I had the manual and it has a section for connecting to the PC and one for the USB modes, if you cannot find it I can get hold of the manual again
Pages 119 onwards

It wont let me re-download the manual. Their website has been acting funky. Unless the document is saved from previous reading in my acrobat reader i cant see it.
