    Hey, hope I'm in the right place here. I got a computer last June (I think around then). The CD never opened on it but I never really needed it.

    I can't bring it back as I got it through a company I no longer work for. I've tried to open it using a paperclip in the release but it didn't work.

    I want to load up software for a digi camera onto this comp. Does anyone know if I can put the CD into my laptop and email the files to myself to open and load onto this computer? Or is there a fool proof way of opening the CD?

    As you can see from my above description, I'm not very computer literate, so please use small words while explaining. :D

    Thanks

    You should be able to google the make of your camera and download the software needed.
