Exclamation Camera Disappointment

I bought a used Kodak Easy Share P880 for my daughter and I'm really disappointed with it. I read review after review that praised the camera's usability, numerous options, and its high quality photos. I read through the manual, but started taking test shots with the previous owners settings. When those photos ended up grainy and blocky, I reset the camera and started from scratch. No matter what I did, the photos weren't the crisp, clear images I was expecting. Before you ask, I had the camera set to 8.0 mp, and took photos with a tripod under many different light conditions, with and without flash - and tried saving the images in .tiff, high .jpg, and .raw formats, and still the photos at 100% were grainy/blocky.

Am I expecting too much of this camera, did I make a bad choice or can someone offer suggestions to remedy this problem?

Many thanks!
