    I'm having this issue with my PC. The camera gets to the "Automatically Reset the Camera" portion, then connects and disconnects to the computer a few times, then simply shuts off. The system updated asks to 1. verify the camera and computer are connected (the are), 2. hit "reset camera" on the camera's screen (screen is black), and 3. hit the next button when verified. None of this works because the camera gets powered down. Like you said, there is ZERO help out there from Sony. Can't see any Sony driver for a PC out there, either.

However, I was unable to find the DCI 4K 24.00 fps until I realised you have to apply for a license for it using the Creators app. Unnecessarily complicated and I'm hoping an update comes to sort the battery issue soon.
