Installing the USB driver

Before connecting your camcorder to your computer, install the USB driver to the
computer. The USB driver is contained together with application software for viewing
images on a CD-ROM which is supplied with your camcorder.
Do not connect the USB cable to your computer before installation of the USB driver is
completed.

Example: For Windows 98/98SE/Me, Windows 2000 users

(1) Turn on the power of your computer and allow Windows to load.
(2) Insert the supplied CD-ROM in the CD-ROM drive of your computer. The

application software screen appears.

(3) Set the cursor on “USB Driver Installation for Windows 98/98SE/Me and

Windows 2000” and click. USB driver installation starts.

(4) Follow the on-screen messages to install the USB driver.
(5) Connect the (USB) jack on your camcorder with the USB connector on your

computer using the supplied USB cable.

(6) Insert a “Memory Stick” into your camcorder, connect the AC power adaptor

and set the POWER switch to MEMORY.
USB MODE appears on the LCD screen of your camcorder. Your computer
recognizes the camcorder, and the Windows Add Hardware Wizard starts.

(7) Follow the on-screen messages to have the Add Hardware Wizard recognize

the hardware. The Add Hardware Wizard starts twice because two different
USB drivers are installed. Be sure to allow the installation to complete without
interrupting it.

Notes
• You cannot install the USB driver if a “Memory Stick” is not in your camcorder.

Be sure to insert a “Memory Stick” into your camcorder before installing the USB
driver.

• The USB driver has been registered incorrectly as your computer was connected to

your camcorder before installation of the USB driver was completed. Re-install the
USB driver following the procedure on page 143.
