I have just bought a Canon G10 and I love it.  The problem is I can't install the software that came with it.  Iv'e tried going into The control panel and doing it that way, but to no avail.  Can anyone help me?

If the disk wont auto run, then try opening the disk from, Start, My computer, Drive #, explore or open. Then look for a folder called install or auto install. Double click on it and it should either install or just open. If it just opens, then look for a file called install or autoinstall and double click on it. It should now install for you. If not, let us know and I will try to find another way. Good luck.

Hi Peter

I have done all of that previously.  Thell you what Peter, Iv'e had enough of computers to last me a lifetime.  I think I will run the pictures through another programme I have.

Hi Jason

Just learning the ropes.  It's a pretty cool camera, i'm well chuffed.

Haven't loaded Canon software in ages but follwing Peter's idea alternately--- My Computer> CD drive> Set up/ tiny PC icon if that's what it might have? It's Canon's DPP imaging programme that will likely be of most interest on it---unless they put the camera manual on it too?

But, starting off shooting Jpegs, you'll still be able to download them as normal and run them up in your current imaging programme, so you can be using your camera while sorting this snag out. Good luck and hope you enjoy all it's features and look forwards to seeing your photos from it.

Karen,
I too have a G10 and love it. I've had no problem loading the software and recommend you contact the reseller and/or Canon for a replacement disk.
Cheers
Robert
