Well, I'm sure you're right. I didn't invent the internet like Al Gore, and Windows 7 was not my idea. So you're right that it's just me, the rest of the world works great with Sony Reader Library. In fact, in spite of my new PC with the preinstalled Windows 7, I have messed up SOO badly that even product engineers at Sony can't save me, and after 4 of them working 4 hours or so they can't fix my problem. But again, all mine. I should make sure my pc has ONLY exactly what Sony wants to see, and not make pesky changes or install ANY other software. I mean, do we want them to go to all the trouble to make this software stable across a variety of environments??? Heck, maybe they should publish a reference architecture for what an Ideal Windows 7 installation looks like, and maybe have the mfrs lock it down so Sony Reader Library can work as intended?

I wonder how Sony puts up with people like me!
