On my Sony digital camcorder, for me to use it as a 'pass-thru' device for
my Sony Hi8 analog one, I had to go into the menu of the camcorder and
enable the feature.... see the Setup > MM2.1 page of my website for a full
description of how I set it up.

I'd think and test some more before going to such a drastic step as a full
reinstall.
