USB will connect the still photos from the memory stick.
To transfer the tapes you will require a firewire (Sony calls it iLink) cable for connection.

SOURCE: MY SONY DCR-TRV140E WILL NOT PLAYBACK MY OLD VIDEO8 (PAL8) TAPES?

Vista should be able to download this without any issues as it already includes the drivers. i was able to do this with my sony dcr-trv250 painlessly over the ieee-1394 (firewire) port using the DVD capturing bloat-ware (Ulead DVD creater) Toshiba had already installed for me. My toshiba satellite is running Vista Home Premium.

as regards analog hi8 playback, the product manual for the 250 says that this is NOT supported, i.e., it CANNOT play back analog hi8 tapes. Also, i wonder if PAL would be supported here in the US (assuming you're in the US, of course). I would expect only NTSC support. but it's a moot issue, since it doesn't play analog

SONY DCR-TRV22E CONNECTING TO WINDOWS 7

after extensive searching I can't find a usb driver for windows 7 . Unfortunately the maker no longer supports later than windows 2000 for their driver. You might be able to run vmware and pretend to have an operating system that is an earlier version like windows 2000 or XP and run a driver in it for the pretend operating
system .

I do not think this camera has firewire
but it may have a memory stick
maybe you could look at if you can get a memory stick reader that suits its memory stick.

Difficulty to record with a sony handycam dcr-trv22

is it able to record audio? are you able to see the indicators on the lcd screen? are you able to playback previous tapes with recording...if you say yes to all of the questions, there is no doubt that you dont have an issue with the lcd screen. the issue that your having is with the ccd imaging sensor. sony has a recall program for this specific model yrs back, unfortunately its already been discontinued and if you send it to them,it will be treated as an out-of-warranty repair.

Windows XP & Vista should automatically recognize the camera (hardware) when you plug in the USB cable. You don't need the Sony software.
