This is really wierd.

I went to San Fransisco last weekend and my buddy took all these pictures on my camera.

We hook it up to my computer and get them uploaded easily enough.

But I forget all about it after that, and several hours later that night, I put Windows in Hibernate Mode with the camera still hooked up and on.

Now it's frozen. I don't know how else to describe it. The little amber light by the viewfinder button is on, the little green light by the menu button is also on, the screen is dark, and I can't turn it on or off. Buttons are useless. Taking the batteries in and out, switching them, nothing helps. Those two lights just come right back on, and no buttons do anything.

It's an Olympus FE 100.

Any ideas?

I'm not talking about windows, I'm talking about the camera itself. None of the buttons work like they should, batteries in place and all.

that's a new one one me. Stupid question, but are you sure you didn't just set the images to the viewfinder (eyehole) and not the LCD screen by accident?

The LCD is the viewfinder. No eyehole. It's literally stuck. The buttons don't do anything.

You unplugged it from the computer right?
Have you tried holding in the shutter button for 5 seconds?
The new batteries are good right?

Outside of those things I really have no other ideas. I'd suggest emailing Olympus about it.
