    Help with transfering DV tape from cam to computer?

    I have a sony DCR-PC105E DV Camcorder, and I can not transfer or 'USB Steam'
    the video to my computer via USB.
    windows vista say's it can not find the USB driver - I have the disk from
    sony but can not install the driver from that either.
    Is there any other way of getting my mini dv tape footage on to my vista
    computer??
    Please help.

    Does your camera have an i-Link (firewire, IEEE 1394) connector?

    To use the USB connection, you will need a driver/program from Sony. Have you
    checked the Sony web site?

    I have the same problem, apparently sony know about the problem and offer a new software package from thier site, only problem there is whenever i enter the camera details(handycam DCR-HC44E) it wont accept the name!!!???
    There is another cure if you use a firewire cable, (if the camera and the computer has a port for one) which is the next thing il try. I have a feeling though my laptop(dell insipiron 9400 dosnt have the port for it)
    ANYONE OUT THERE PLEASE HELP!!
