Oops, nevermind, I think I got it...
In the camera menu I toggled back and forth a couple of times between PTP and PC conneciton, and things seem to have gotten happy. Downloading right now, hopefully it will work out.

I spent about 12 hours flying around in a helicopter yesterday, taking photos and some video. It's bush work, so I brought my Canon Rebel XT instead of my 40D. I used an 8 Gig CF card, which usually lives in my 40D. I formatted it in the Rebel before taking any shots. The shots are on it and chimpable in the Rebel.
Back when I always used the Rebel, I'd transfer files to my laptop via USB cable. I later upgraded to my 40D and installed all the related Canon software, which I suppose overwrote the Rebel software?
Now, when I plug the Rebel in via USB I get three quick bonk sounds, but no option to download files, nor a drive to navigate to in Explorer.
I've tried putting the CF card in two different, cheap, USB readers. The USB reader drive(s) show up, but with no contents.
I hope I didn't just blow a $15,000 helicopter ride! :-O
Any help!?!?
