For those of you about to weed through all the comments below, I'd recommend saving yourself some time by getting a micro SD card reader. I tried everything below to no avail - but simply removing the card from the camera and using a usb card reader works fine. It's as if the PC recognizes the camera as a usb storage drive, but for whatever reason does not recognize the memory card IN the camera as the actual drive. There are no drivers, defective manufacturer cables, special cables, etc.
