I've got a new computer (Windows 7, 64 bit) and need to install a driver for it to recognize and show thumbnails and previews of Sony's RAW file format. I remember doing this long ago for my Vista machine, but can't seem to find what I'm looking for again...help!

Thanks! It would appear to have done the trick, although I won't know for sure until I restart the computer.

I think it was Winston who post the same (or similar) link a couple of months ago. I just remember it, google it and everything else was up to you.

Yay, it works. I don't have my old inherited copy of Photoshop 6.0 on the new chompy either, need too look into another photoprocessor...
