[QUOTE="thequeenscheese, post: 459927, member: 37908"] you are trying with the camera turned on? have you tried in another pic? usb cables can be wired differently is it a new out of the box camera or could someone have put any cable in the box? uninstall the usb driver from my devices restart then plug the camera in and turn it on and ditch any usb extension leads, I had an issue with one myself recently took me a while to figure out what was going on with the same temperamental symptoms your getting, or is sounds like your not getting enough power to/from the USB ports you could try a powerd ext USB hub or turning the power/gain up in the bios if it lets you as for drivers the generic windows driver should be fine as the camera is designed to work without one from nikon ( read that somewhere), when I plug mine in it shows up under my computer as d3200 which you can open as an normal sd card does and copy over but as some others suggested to me I use nx2 and the cable, have you also checked your sd is a supported one? you could also update your motherboards firmwhere for your chipset and anything else that's available, update your bios etc this could easily be your problem..
