Select Pictures as the Content Type, then choose the option to copy files to your computer.

Alternatively, at the bottom of the list is an option button to "Prompt me each time to choose an action". If you select this, you'll be able to choose from the list each time you insert your card.
yeah - i found that earlier and have done exactly what you said already (found this after initial post), but it still doesn't bring up the option to copy the files.... I'm thinking a 'repair' run of XP is in order (restore point didn't fix issue either).... ho hum.......
