I have had problems with the software bundled with my last 2 Fuji camera's
so now I just use windows explorer, and the free image resizer download from
Microsoft. When I installed my A340 my system just froze, rebooted in safe
mode, uninstalled the Fuji stuff and the system has been fine

All the best
Rik
