I think I like my fuji. I ignored the software (just photo editing junk!!!!). I have paint shop pro and photoshop if I need it.

I just plug the cable into any USB port on any computer and read the camera as another drive. Simple.

Perhaps you can do the same thing with your minolta.

I bought a set of Dolphin gauges, I haven't installed them yet.I've heard they're a decent gauge, Not top of the line but not bottom.
I hope to see your dash extend soon as well. I built a extention on my '54 I think it turned out well. I plan on AC vents only in my extention.

Those are good gauges. I'm running the same set in my '53 only mine have the chrome bezel. I think Autometer makes the best gauges around

Anyone had any experience with Classic Insterments? They look very nice and
they can be customized a little. "classic insterments.com" Take a look.

If your camera records it's images as .jpg files, get a simple card reader for the type card your camera uses. plug the reader into a USB port and plug the card from the camera into the reader. The reader will show up as another disk drive.
the .DLL (note "L"s not i's) file is a file that came with your software. Did you first remove the previous install of the software before reinstalling it? it is likely the file name got corrupted somehow, and reinstalling the software over an existing version may not find and fix the error, always uninstall the present version before doing a reinstall.
