Sorry if in wrong section but seems about right.
Since up grading from XP to Windows 7 i can not get my Canon 50d or 400d to install on pc, Zoombrower etc install but no drivers for the bodies, Just says no drivers needed or non available:bang:.
Anybody else had this problem and over come it and can advice please.

Try uninstalling zoombrowser etc. reboot and then connect a camera to a usb port, see what windows7 does?

I've never connected my camera to the pc, always used a card reader but I do see that there are some circumstances where you'd need to.
 
Have you got Autoplay switched on in Windows 7?

Control Panel / Autoplay / tick the "Use Autoplay for all media and devices" box at top of page.
 
I never had any issues getting my 50D to hook up to Windows 7 64 bit both with and without Canon software.

Just checked that m8 and it was already ticked .

Thanks to all for taking the time in answering,But im still in the search for the answer.
 
You're not using Windows 7 "N" by any chance are you? This is the one with out Media Player and a few other bits. One of the missing components is a host protocol driver for imaging devices.

Media Player package
