Hi, I have dcr-trv145E and notebook with win7. I need drivers for this product. I have connect dv to usb.
Hello high182 - welcome to the Sony Forums
The most up to date drivers for your camera are available here:

However, there is no 'official' compatibility with Windows 7. This doesn't mean that your camera will not work though - you may need to purchase a Firewire adapter for your laptop such as this one:

You may find it easier to get a USB/Firewire adapter - there is a range of them available on Amazon:
You may also find that you get good results by using Windows Live Movie Maker 2011. It is free software that may already be installed as part of your Windows 7 setup but if you don not have it yet, it can be found here.
Thanks,
Simon
Thank you Simon for your ideas, but it doesn't solve my problems. I have notebook HP G62 and I need connect camcoder Sony DCR-TRV 145 e. I have wire usb/dv and Win7. Anything else ideas? My english is not very good, I am from slovakia and I learning english only 6 month.
Hello again
Other than installing a Firewire adapter on your PC, it may be worth considering installing Windows XP on a seperate partition on your hard drive (this can be done if you have a copy of the CD and a valid licence key from a previous machine). You can store the imported video files in a folder that is accessible from both operating systems.
Thanks,
Simon
