Off subject but help needed

Hi
Slightly off subject but i need some advice re.

I want to sell my Pug on an internet auction site.
I bought a video camera to show the car from every angle and the
picures are on camera in thumbnail form.
For the life of me and despite loads of tries I cannot get these files
onto the computer.
All software is loaded,the camera cable is plugged into the front USB
port[where the computer camera was attached to] but all it does is act
as a computer camera saying "no video capture device"
Someone says the computer will have the contents of the camera memory
card somewhere but it's not on the computer anywhere.
Using ARCSOFT and photoimpression 4 and 5.
I'm very clueless at computers and apologise for this not the proper
site but if you cannot help can you put me onto a site that can help.
Appreciate any info you can give,need to sell the car.

 

Have a look in 'My Computer' when the camera is connected; a lot of digital
cameras show up as an extra drive letter immediateley after your CD-Rom
drive. Then you can browse the memory card for the images and/or video file
stored on it and then move that to your C drive where you can work on them.

thanks for that,I'll give it a go,would not ask a group but I'm
stumped and the user book from,China I think, gives no intructions at
all in the English that I can understand,par for the course I think
with some of the electronic items arriving from abroad.Thanks again.

 

just to say thanks to you it fired up!and the pictures came through!
What seemed to have happened was;
I connected the camera to the computer via USB cable then switched it
on but it acted as a computer camera,this time I switched the camera
on then attached the USB cable and up they came on a G drive.
I probably would not have bothered any more except for your comments
so thanks again,now I've got to sell the car!Regards
