freezed Olympus fe-45

[stefsensei]

Hello everyone,
I know the digital camera I am asking about is kinda of a very old model, but my bro is completly in love with it, so I hope I can find a solution.

So one day, and completly out of the blue, when my bro turned it on, it made a long beep, the zoom came out and stayed that way, the display stayed black and that's it, even by removing the batteries, and putting new ones (that work on another samsung digital cam) nothing seems to happen except what I described. And the zoom is all the time out. So someone can explain what happened to this Olympus FE-45? thank you for reading me

I suggest a few things to try.

1. Update the driver from Olympus' website per their instructions.

2. Update the firmware from Olympus' website per their instructions.

3. Check out Olympus' Forums for similar issues - http/www.dpreview.com/forums/thread/3406442

Good luck!
