• 473 Answers SOURCE: To get your camcorder to work properly with your PC (and show up in Device Manager), you must install the software (the driver and editing software) that came with your camcorder. Your system also must meet the following minimum requirements: * CPU: Intel® Pentium III 450MHz processor compatible or better * Operating system: Windows® 98SE/ME/ 2000/XP * RAM: 128 MB or more * CD-ROM: 4x CD-ROM drive * VIDEO: 65,000-color or better video display card * Available USB port * Hard Disc: 4GB (8GB recommended) If the camcorder is still not being recognized after you have installed the software, reboot your computer, and then try another USB port or another USB cable. If your problem persists, contact Samsung Customer Care at 1-800-SAMSUNG (1-800-726-7864). Be sure to have the model number of your camcorder handy and basic information about your PC such as operating system, kind of CPU, and available memory.
