AFter you plug it in to the USB port you gonna have a window popping up.

You could choose "explore" the drive and go into a folder there usually called DCIM or similar.

If nothing pops up, then push Start and click on "My computer" and you should see a bunch of drives listed, one of them will be something funky named like "Drive I" or "Drive J" or "H", anything but Drive C or D. Double click to open it and navigate to a folder that contains the pictures.

Once you open that folder in it (DCIM), you can just highlight all pictures in the folder (CTRL+A) and after push CTRL+C

Now go into your "my pictures folder" click just once on an empty space, create a new folder, rename it to something whatever you wish, then open it up then push this button combo: CTRL+V

You should see your folder getting filled up with the pictures you have selected from the folder located in your digital cameras' memory.
