Your best bet is to use the drivers from the CD.
To do this on windows 7, you'll need to use compatibility mode.
Browse to the contents of the cd in windows explorer. Right click on the driver installer file, and select "properties".
Select the "compatibility" tab from the properties window, and select "windows xp sp3" from the drop down menu. Also tick the "run as administrator" on the bottom.
I did this with my own hitachi DZ_MV350A and it worked just fine.

Guide for transfering data to pc
Utilizing a USB computer connection and Hitachi's optional PC Editing
Kit Software (DZ-WINPC3W), the DVD camcorders become external DVD home
movie drives. Video can be transferred from the DVD camcorder to the PC
for editing. After editing, the video can be transferred back to the
DVD camcorder and recorded. This is where the strength of Hitachi's
multi-format DVD camcorders gives consumers an unprecedented
capability:
1. Record video utilizing the rewrite-able DVD-RAM format
2. Transfer the footage to the PC
3. Edit the footage on the PC
4. Transfer the footage back to the DVD camcorder and record it onto DVD-R for compatibility with most DVD players
Or if available, the video can be transferred
by placing the disc into a PC's 4.7G byte DVD-RAM or DVD-ROM3 drive.
Editing steps to note:
Getting your Hitachi DVD ram vro to
video cd or dvd! *note just changing the vro file to mpg does not work,
what happens is you only see the 1st segment of your recordings. I went
through insane amounts of hell figuring all of this out. The below
method to my knowledge is the only way to do it without going insane!
Only Two Programs Needed:
DVD2AVI
TMPGENC
Basic steps are here, let me know if you need more detail:
-Copy your .vro file to your hard drive
-open dvd2avi
-load the vro file directly into dvd2avi
-do a save project (that will create 2 small files)
-close dvd2avi, you're done with it now
-now open tmpgenc
-load the video portion of your dvd2avi project (the d2v file)
-load your audio portion of your dvd2avi project (the other one)
-you're set! just output the file to svcd or whatever you like!
-need to edit the file? use tmpgenc mpeg tools and segment the
clips you want, then merge them back together as 1 mpeg, it works great
and no need for re-encoding!
if you still need more help regarding software for editing,here is the link

I have a chance to get an Hitachi DZ-580A camcorder but the software won't work on my operating system (Windows 7). What can I do?
SOURCE: Hitachi dz-mv730a
go to disc navigation on ur camcorder then hit the menu button and scroll down til u get to the finalize cd option. make sure you have a full battery cuz if it gets interupted it might corrupt the dvd
SOURCE: Error Code 2881 will not work
Error code 2881 means that the disc is unrecognizable by the device, either because the disc ia damaged, the incorrect format, the wrong type, or the laser reader is damaged. If the laser is damaged then it must be serviced. All the other options cam be fixed by buying another disc or formatting on a computer.
