I have found that this is the culprit. A Network Drive conflicts with Sony's software. It is deeper than that because it is the services that let network drives exist. If I turn those off, Sony software works (but not store, because the internet is turned off).

This is not a Win 7 issue, it is a Sony issue. They have some protocol they are using to run the store that conflicts with networked drives.

I know I can get all the sony stuff elsewhere, but truly they have the best store for Google Books so far.

And how do you know it's not the software for the network drive(s) that's not the cause of the problem?
