HDR-FX7E 64-bit Win 7 device unplugged issue via i-link

[parasound]

Hello,

I have a Sony HDR-FX7E camcorder and i am using win 7 pro 64-bit OS. When i connect my cam to pc via fire wire (i-link) the device model appears in an installation window and win 7 recognises the model name. It however tries to install a driver for it although Sony states that via i-link connectivity does not require driver.

Then this driver is not found and the message says device unplugged.

Please help if you run into similar problems

Thanks

I am not suprsed by 64-bit running Windows

U can use Windows Movie Maker via I link cable which protocol is IEEE1394. On program you go to function chaptering from video device, which is first left in program. On camera set option play-edit.

There is free download on internet, if You use Windows 7

There are 4-4 and 4-6 pins I link cable. Sony cameras are always 4 pin, but see DV IN in Yor PC. If You do not have DV IN, there are cheap USB - I Link adapters.
Deinstall K-lite and free codec packs.
