It appears that there is no Vista (or XP) software for this camera:

No offense, but could you elucidate on your quandry? What is the problem?
You should be able to plug in any cheap card reader, transfer the photos
and edit them using your favourite software be it GIMP or photoshop (or
other).

It has an RS232 interface... Try plugging a card reader into that

You might be able to "Write" some software or use "Hyperterminal" to
transfer files - the communications protocol may not be all that hard
for someone to figure out, but given the price of digital cameras of
vastly superior resolution these days I'm afraid this sounds like either
the trashcan of hope it becomes an antique. No impossible since today's
throw away society tends to, well, throw things aways.

Sorry.

I suppose you could load up a compatible OS in a virtual machine if
there's something really important on it and you like a challenge.

Thank you for the help.I'm very sorry. I should have clarified that I know
absolutely nothing about computers.I will try a card reader.Many thanks again.

Of course it has an RS232 interface - so does my DC210+. So, you remove
the memory card; put the memory card in a cheap card reader; plug the card
reader into the USB port; and transfer the files. Crucial.com sells
perfectly servicable card readers for very little cash - and they work a
lot faster than the RS232 port - and save the camera batteries at the same
time.

You're quite welcome. See crucial.com for some decent, inexpensive USB
memory card readers.

As I read it the question referred to the software package, which is now
useless...

OK. As I read it, the question was 'how do I get the pics to the
computer'. That's why I inquired as to the nature of the problem and
whether a card reader might be the answer. Checking his answer, evidently,
it was.
