    Has anyone gotten their SZ3xx series web cam working after upgrading to Vista? I cannot find a Vista driver so I re-installed the XP version but no luck.

    The only other thing that is not working for me in Vista is that the Protector QL will not allow me the option of doing the power-on single-sign-on (where the power on authentication is passed to the Windows logon automatically). I am running Protector Suite 5.6.0 build 3278.

    Thanks

    Perfectly well indeed. Even better then under XP because I can finally take image with VGA res. XP only used QVGA. The cam does not appear in a computer tab though. It can be used from any software (Skype for example) or the Sony capture util.

    Ok - thanks.

    I was looking for the Camera under "Computer" where it shows up in XP. Are you using the XP driver or no driver at all?

    Using standard XP divers here and the vista camera util. Works very well.
