Is dual booting one 32- and one 64-bit OS even possible? Because Sony has not developed a 64-bit driver, I do not see how I can use this device with Home Premium (圆4). I can install the application, however, the driver installation always fails/does not initiate because there is not a 64-bit driver.Īny suggestions? It would be ridiculous to dual boot Vista Home Premium (x32) and 7 Home Premium (圆4) just to use this device.
Apparently, Sony does not develop drivers for their digital voice recorders for 64-bit OSes. Now that I have upgraded to Windows 7 Home Premium (圆4), I can no longer use the hardware. They have worked well under Windows XP and Vista. Software for personal computers is typically developed and distributed independently from the hardware or operating system manufacturers. I have used a Sony digital voice recorder for over 5 years this is my second Sony. This isnt a review so much as a test with the new recorder and a few comment. I then convert the WAV into a WMA for web/email distribution. Im replacing my Zoom H2 audio recorder with a smaller, lighter Sony recorder. With Sony's Digital Voice Editor software, I convert the Sony proprietary format file into a WAV to burn to CD for archive.

I use a Sony ICD-ST25 digital voice recorder to record a ~40 minute message every week.
