System is Windows 7 64 bit, if that makes any difference in this scenario.
The OS changes nothing.

I noticed that Calibre always sent a correct file format to my PRS-600. However, if you have an e-book in several compatible formats, your default format will be used (generally ePub, as set in Preferences...General...Preferred output format). If you want to send a compatible format other than default, e.g. Sony format, in that case select "specific format" and then LTR.

Hope it helps.
