    Good News!! I posted a request for help with my VAIO camera drivers fro the FJ270.. a few replies but I'd tried everything

    ..until Ilan Shusterman to whom I am eternally grateful helped me locate the european driver ftp site ... which is a virtual treasure trove of everything VAIO!!! THE SITE IS INCREDIBLE!!
    Not only did I find my camera driver which works:

    ftp://ftp.vaio-link.com/PUB/Vaio/Original/ .......(FJ_1Utilities)

    but i've also found drivers for several more vaios etc...

    ftp://ftp.vaio-link.com/PUB/Vaio/


    Not sure if everyone already knows of this site ...or if it applies to vaios from other countries but it worked for me!! Goodluck..

    (I wish a sony tech support guy reads this .. so that others dont have to go thru the same harassment I faced from Sony)

    Thanks for the link. However, the problem for most of us (I think) isn't finding a driver for the webcam, but finding a solution for the shutdown freeze after installing the webcam driver.

    There has been posted an American hotfix, but a European solution is still missing.
