 Make sure that the latest version (Ver. 6.1) of the VAIO Media software or the VAIO Media plus software
are not installed on your personal computer before starting installation.
 You can install the VAIO Media software on any personal computer besides VAIO computers if it meets
the hardware and Operating System requirements. For further information, refer to the User Guide and
see “Software and Hardware Requirements.”
