This is usually caused by a defective CCD image sensor and will require disassembling the camera to repair. The lens assembly will need to be removed, the old CCD de-soldered from the circuit board and a new one installed in its place. This can usually be done fairly inexpensively. However, it's not really a user serviceable problem and will need to be repaired qualified service technician.

This is usually caused by an oxidized, misaligned or defective Audio/Video drum. You can try running a cleaning tape through the camera. If this does not solve the problem the camera will need to be serviced by a qualified service technician.

This can be caused by several problems including the transmission gear in the tape mechanism not engaging properly or a defective clutch in the take-up spool and can usually be repaired fairly inexpensively.

The USB streaming driver for the Camcorder is not available
for Windows 7 OS from Sony at this point. Hence it is not possible to transfer
videos using USB interface. You may use i.LINK or A/V interface to transfer
videos from the Camcorder to the Computer which is running on Windows 7
Operating System.
Please
follow the steps to transfer video to a computer using an i.LINK connection
(IEEE 1394).
IMPORTANT: Video capture software and a compatible video capture card must
be installed on the computer. Depending on the computer manufacturer, various
video capture cards and software (Adobe Premiere, Roxio Video Wave, Microsoft
Windows Movie Maker, etc.) may be available or already installed on your
computer. If necessary, contact the manufacturer of your computer for further
information.
NOTE: Many Sony VAIO computers are bundled with Sony DVgate Motion or DVgate
Plus software for video capturing. Some VAIO computers also include Click To
DVD software that will allow video capture to the computer hard drive or
directly to a DVD.
i.LINK
Cable.
i.LINK
port.
NOTE: The computer i.LINK ports and capture cards
may have either 4-pin or 6-pin connections. Sony digital camcorders use i.LINK
ports with 4 pins. If your computer only has a 6-pin i.LINK port, then it will
be necessary to use a 4-pin to 6-pin i.LINK cable.
It should now be possible to copy the video using
the video capture software if the computer hardware and software are configured
correctly.
Thanks for understanding. Please let me know if you require any further assistance.
