If I were you, I would return the camcorder since SONY doesn't seem to have the 64 bit driver for it and get a camcorder which driver supports the 64-bit Arch.

That person is talking about something different. What you need is a camcorder (taking videos) that works with your system. What he is talking about is a software for creating (not taking) videos.

Panthere,

What do you want to do with the camcorder when the software is installed on your pc?

I'm only asking because maybe there is another way to accomplish what your trying to do with different software.

Panthere, when you connect your camcorder to your laptop, does Vista recognize it or does it ask for a driver? If Vista recognizes the unit on it's own, it is possible that you can use Windows integrated software to do what you want to do or at the very least import your video onto your system. But you would need Vista Home Premium or Vista Ultimate to do this. The Basic and Business editions do not have this capability.

Also, I noticed when checking the specs on your cam that it does not have an integrated USB port on the camcorder itself but only on the base unit. If the laptop doesn't recognize the camcorder when connected via Firewire, try the USB connection and you may find the system can see it then. Or vice versa.

If Vista does recognize your camcorder I could give you some links to software that will be more than enough for what you want to do.

Actually firewire is used for many more things than just cameras. It is just another way to connect devices to your system, much in the same way as USB. If you look at the specs of his camcorder, you will see that it does, as all camcorders do, have a firewire connector on it but no USB in this case. The USB connector is only on the included base unit.

More info on firewire can be found here:

Maybe you know someone who had Windows XP installed...
Just transfer the movie to his/her machine, burn it on a DVD and play the DVD in your Vista computer

hey techman i do respect the amount of posts that you have on merb and your name techman but this time you are wrong. fire wire is just for tape cameras no DVD or hard drive cameras. can you please show me a link to a camera that does not record to tape that has fire wire ? if i am wrong it Will be my pleasure to admit to you that i am wrong but i am not :D wait i could be wrong it might be the lanc port that is for tape cameras only
