    See my signature line below for a guide to doing a clean install. In that guide you will find a list of all the drivers and auxiliary apps that are required on an FZ series machine. The order in which these are installed is important. Some how in your uninstalling the "trial ware" you have also uninstalled a required driver or utility (most likely the latter). The guide should help you figure out which utility you inadvertently uninstalled.
