You don't say what make you have but most camera should work fine on Auto. If not the SPORTS setting. You say you tried the fasttest speed ... but is it ?
If it's even a little dark switching the flash on helps.
Other things you could do.
Change the resolutionof the camera mean that the amount of data to store is less and therefor can speed up picture storage which again if you change to Standard will make it easier for the camera to handle the data.

There are three sources of blur. One is the subject movement during slow shutter speeds, another is  having the camera focusing on something else and the third is the photographer shaking the camera. If you think this is the case try using a tripod.

Yeh most new digital cameras in good light will work fine taking photos. Maybe it is too dark when you take the pictures?

love the way you can focus the image and then take it instantly with new digi cams.. makes it easier.

The way forward is to get yourself a digital SLR camera, you can adjust the shutter speed accordingly. They are well worth the money invested in them.
