Well, I was going to ask a similar question. Sometimes I have this problem. It seems to occur when I have more than 2 folders on the memory card. I don't know when the folders are created... like after 30 pictures or after powering down for x amount of time, but they are there. Anyway, the only way I can transfer the pictures from the camera to the computer is to open "My Computer" and find the camera listed and open it by double clicking. Then, open a separate window with my destination folder and then copy each folder from the camera to the folder on my computer. It takes FOREVER to copy, but it does copy. Now, I don't have any problem with my 256MB card, just my 1GB. Hope this helps!

Well I have never encountered this problem. Those folders are created by camera and in my case there was no problem with up to more than 5 folders (I use 1GB card) .
I wonder what version of Windows you are using? I would suggest to re-install camera drivers from CD or dowload latest from Canon website. In 90% cases it solves the problem.
Or as alternative I would suggest to buy very simple USB card reader, that will be seen by your computer as an additional drive. It is very handy if you want just to download your RAW or JPEG pictures and save them on your hard drive for later review.
