Hello,

I have a Sony VAIO laptop and after upgrading from Vista to Windows 7 my webcam will not work. When I try to download the driver from the Sony website it says the update is only available for Vista. I'd really appreciate some help, please.

This is the link to the Sony website I have been using.

Thank you for the help, but when I try to download the driver it says "This update can only run on Microsoft Windows Vista" even though I have already selected Windows 7 Ultimate. Any suggestions?

Thank you again, but those were the links I was using. For some reason when I try to install the driver it still says it is only for a Windows Vista computer, although I clearly have selected Windows 7 Ultimate.

If anyone else has had this problem, please help me.
