    Your key problem will be Sony utilities - and libraries.

    Once you have those sorted you can theoretically use any driver...

    I have Server 2008 x64 on my FZ and FW. Doable but not straightforward.
    Nowadays there are finally utilities for x64, but Bluetooth still does not work (drivers are 64 bit but installation does not go right).
