If you have a PC running Windows XP, you do not need any drivers or software to get your picture files on to the PC. Connect your camera to the PC with a USB cable while Windows is running and it will detect it as a removable storage device with it's own drive-letter in 'My Computer'. Click on this drive letter and you will get a new window showing the folders in the camera's memory. One of these folders will contain the pictures which you can then save to the hard disk and re-name them. You will need some software to be able to edit/resize the pictures before printing them. If you don't have any editing software, the pictures will open automatically in 'Windows Picture and Fax Viewer' (part of Windows XP), and you'll be able to print them from here but not re-size them. however, with digital camera images it's essential to have a program which can re-size them because they are usually displayed at only 72dpi (the monitor's width in pixels) so they are far too large to print without resizing.
