    Have looked at hours worth of posts regarding the camera, win7, etc. Does anybody have a direct link to the proper camera driver for a z690 running windows 7 x64? Also, if you have a link for 32 bit that would help with the 'ole
    lady's laptop too.

    Thanks,

    Mark

    P.S. - Anybody else install an Intel SSD into their Z? Just installed a G2 160gb drive a few days ago and holy s. it flys, but I do have some concerns about *low (200-205MBPS Max Seq Read) benchmark scores in HD Tune. We should start a seperate thread on the Z and aftermarket SSD drives.

    You don't need any driver for the camera. It works naturally with Windows 7

    ok, makes sense. I see Win7 installed a driver that is dated 2006 (Sony Visual Communications Camera) or something like that. I just was not sure if the camera would function properly with complete functionality with this driver.
