I didn't need to. I installed to a custom directory (ie Not program files) on XP then copied the whole directory to vista64. Created a link to 'eBook Library.exe' and it works fine.

Vista 64 recognises the PRS-505 has a USB disk before you install anything. It even sees the memory card has a separate disk so no extra drivers are required. At least not on my version of Vista

I had tried to install in normal way but the installation failed with a silly "Installation Unsuccessful" message. I downloaded the version of the program from the sony site and that failed too.

Now I have a working 'eBook Library' and I've already converted a couple of books for it with the Bookdesigner software, all using Vista 64
