Computer off the domain, as in never connected to the domain, acts the same. Cannot see the cameras pictures (storage) after reboot. AHHHHH! Any other ideas? -WS

I'm not giving up on this. Here's my latest find:

Humm Nope, No AC Adaptor with the camera, must be extra. This camera acts the same as all Canon's works correctly per USB port until reboot. Software install does not add drivers nor did it fix the problem of re-gaining access to the camera. (Someone suggested software install added drivers)
Re-imaged machine and camera works, installed software while camera works, and software and camera work. Once the machine is rebooted camera stops working and the software can no longer access camera.
This does work, however once you reboot, the camera stops working. If only the camera would stick and work permanently. I noticed in the registry that Canon creates some bizarre entries, unlike the other camera's. Wonder if this is really the problem. I noticed that Windows 7 Home creates the correct keys ?? Wondering what is different from Windows 7 Home and Windows 7 Enterprise/Ultimate. UGH! -WS
I'm afraid I am the wrong person to ask about Registry Keys. Whether you are on Win 7 Home or Ultimate shouldn't make any difference. I'm lost i'm afraid. You would think though, as you have a number of Canon cameras and therefore have invested quite heavily into the Company that they would be a bit more forthcoming. I wonder if you listed the Canon Cameras you have a put a total value to them and went back to Canon pointing out your financial commitment they would give some more thought to the problem. Worth a try perhaps!
Well I can tell you it's not a Windows 7 / Canon Camera compatibility issue as there are plenty using Window 7 and Canon cameras.
That said, it is weird that the OP is having issues with a multitude of Canon cameras under Win 7
True but I think you wil find that most users take the card out of the camera and use a card reader. This is much the quickest way for most uers as even if you get the transfer by USB working it takes about three or four times as long to transfer a single photo compared to the card reader approach.(And that's providing you can remember where you put the USB cable!)
Problem is the USB Transfer way is the one that suits the OP best in a corporate environment!
The point is it's not a compatibility issue between Win 7 and Canon.
Removing the card from the camera is a completely different topic, and has nothing to do with the issue at hand. And for the record, I don't remove my card from the camera. And if you look around some photo sites like dpreview.com, it's basically 50/50.
But regardless the percentage, it's not the solution the OP seeks, nor does it solve the problem.... why are the Canon cameras having issues with USB while the others are not?
