Disk that came with camera doesn't seem to have drivers, nor does the official Canon support page. I'm running Win XP with Adobe Premiere editing software. Neither Premiere nor WIn Movie Maker will recognize the camera. Don't I need drivers?
If you have windows xp or higher you don't need drivers just an intel based pc, atleast 1 or 2 gigs of memory and try it with the software that came with it...if you dont like that make SURE your version of adobe works with the HDV format....make sure your settings IN the software program are correct...and viola!...MAKE SURE YOU ARE USING A FIREWIRE 4 TO 4 OR 4 TO 6 PIN CABLE no exceptions

Looking at buying an "as is" Vixia HV30. The camera only turns on when set to "Playback." It remains off if set to "Camera." Also, the LCD has no image but the seller says the panel is not cracked and suspects a loose connector.
