Dazzle DVC 80

[etr174]

Hello I have an old Dazzle DVC 80 RCA/ S-Video to USB that I use to convert tapes from my old Sony Handycam to digital and burn on discs. I built my new computer and I need to use it to copy a lot of clips, probably about 12-16 hours worth of tapes but I stumbled into a problem. I'm running Windows 8.1 64 bit and the only driver Pinnacle has for is for Windows XP. I tried installing it in compatibility mode and I installed AmCap. AmCap will recognize it as "Cirrus Logic" and its only a video source, no audio. When I switch the video source from my actual Webcam to that it brings up an error that it was unable to add the source. I really dont want to do this but I have an extra SATA laptop drive that will fit in my case and an XP boot disk, thing is I really dont want to keep taking my side panel off and transfer my wires from my 1TB 3.5" drive to the XP drive. Anyone have anything to try? Thanks

Go to the manufacture website and see if they have any updates for your operating system. If not then it may be time to buy a new dazzle
