I have a D3000 and wanted to be able to hook my camera up to my laptop (running Windows 7) and be able to have it automatically show me my photos as I take them. There are remote control packages available, and I'm trying them out. However, Windows will recognize my camera and allows me to download photos and stuff like that, but the remote control software does not recognize my camera. Wondering if anyone has any ideas for me.

The only remote capture software I found which listed the Nikon D3000 was some hairshirt open source effort. Unfortunately, it only runs on Unix like operating systems so that involves another level of faffing around.

The Canon software (that we get for free with the camera, nyark nyark:-) is very sensitive to the quality of the USB link. If I replace the Canon-sanctioned USB cable by some random one (especially the one for by graphic tablet) I won't work (I suspect the one for the graphic tablet is only designed to support USB 1.1 rates). I would not be surprised if Nikons behaved the same way.
