    Could anyone explain to me what drivers/apps need to be installed and in what order to get these to function. Every previous post in regards to this issue relates to older model SZs and doesn't solve the problem at all.

    I have a clean install image disc from Portable One I could use, but then I have to install all my apps, SP1, and there's no way for me to get rid of Internet Explorer or all the bundled unnecessary crap that comes with it. Aside from the function keys my vLite Vista install worked perfectly and I don't want to have to intall again.

    Read the post in my sig for SZ7 drivers and utils.

    Some of the utils are borrowed from the SZ6 and most of the drivers will be the same. I think the Bluetooth adapter in the SZ6 is a different model and the camera is a VCC5.

    Th utils should all work though, install them on the order listed and post back with your results.
