VGNFZ140E Sony Vaio Camera problems

[milk909]

I did a clean install of windows 7 recently and found the drivers here.
The only problem is my camera works but the vaio capture utility is not working.
As soon as I run it it crashes "exception error"
I've ran the setup and executable files both in compatibility to vista.

I've installed the VCC4 drivers, the image filter, the camera utilities, and the camera capture utilities...

This is a VGNFZ140E sony vaio

Try installing the Shared Library too.

yeah i've done the shared library and other components in the "correct" order from a link in notebook forums but yet the camera has still stumped me.

Was it this link - Windows 7 64-bit clean install guide in FZ-190E

 

[milk909]

yeah i'm pretty sure that was the link.. but i'm not 100% sure cause i know i've clicked that link before.
Maybe I should do a 64-bit install? and see if it works.

I can't see it not working but it's up to you. The drivers to get the camera working at the link above, aren't 64bit drivers, so try reinstalling and follow the guide.

the problem is not the camera working, it works fine. I'm speaking about the camera capture utility. Sorry, if you thought it was the camera.... I read somewhere earlier that the utility wont work on 7. Unless you have it working...

Let me know if yours work or anyone let me know.
Thanks FZ for all your help.
