SONY DV HANDYCAM CAMCORDER, MODEL DCR-TRV27

I know there has been some discussion about this, but not my exact model. i
bought it used from a guy with no case, lens cap, software or cable. I asked
Sony for help & a nice woman told me I needed to buy a certain cable, which I
did. She said my camera would work with Windows Movie Maker.

It doesn't. Nothing does.

I checked for drivers at Sony but no dice.

Can anyone help me?

========================================
Did you connect the camera to the pc via a
IEEE 1394 FireWire (Sony i.LINK) connection.
