Lost camera drivers following upgrade to Win7

I have just upgraded my Vaio VGN-TZ31WN/B from XP Pro to Win7, but have now lost use of my camera.

The Sony site does not appear to have the drivers I need.

Does anyone have any ideas please?

Thanks

You need to install the original Ricoh Camera Driver 6.210C and the Vaio Camera Capture Utility from the preinstalled drivers and utilities on the support page for your model here: -

http://support.vaio.sony.eu/computing/vaio/downloads/preinstalled/index.aspx?l=en_GB&m=VGN-TZ31WN_B

These were designed for Vista but should work with Windows 7 - Sony do not directly support Windows 7 for your model.

An alternative may have been to reinstall Vista from the Recovery Partition and then UPGRADE to Windows 7 which would have preserved all the original Vaio Drivers Utilities and Software.
