how the hell to install a camera on your computer when the model of camera you have is not on the list?i havetried just about everything and stillcannot figure it out.

I prolly is your anti-virus that is causing your problem. Is it a webcam or a normal digi cam?
For a normal still camera the standard microsoft software that comes with your computer should do the trick.
Just plug it in and see what happens. You won't have all the fancy picture editing features, but it does the job.
What Ron said! Most (decently made) digital cameras will just be detected as a USB removable disc drive, and will appear as an extra drive letter in "Bill's Computer".
If installing drivers, make sure you pay attention to whether you should have the device pre-plugged in or not. While windows can now do some reasonable semblance of hotplugging USB kit, driver installation routines can be less clever.
You don't need the image editing crap anyway, or ruddy $$$Photoshop.

copy them to a folder on C:
Cameras tend to have shitty slow interfaces and pics can take a bollox of a time to open.
