VF64-VCP capture card driver for Win2000

[Michel Petrucci]

I desperately need the VF64-VCP capture card driver for Windows 2000 Professional.
I have visited mediaforte.com/support/drivers/download web page but they only supply the drivers for win9x
and NT.( and many other tech forums)
Anybody can help me??
Thank you. Michel.

Since the problem is not with finding the maker of the card and getting the correct drivers for it, but with the makers not offering a driver I think you will be out of luck.
Sorry.

[Michel Petrucci]

Thank you very much indeed for your help.
I think I am out of luck since I decided to switch from WinNT to Windows 2000 ( "Upgraded"??!!)
I thing that Bill Gates should first, be sure to be compliant with all type of device before issuing a kind of OS like Windows 2000.
In fact, I really had to find out all the appropriate driver for all my devices, only because Windows 2000.
Thanks .
Michel.

It ain't Bill bud, it's the lazy factor of the folks who made your card. It their responsability to give suport for the things they make. :p

Actually not,
When you buy a product it say with what OS it is supposed to work. They have no actual obligation to support it on more platrofms than this.

Off course a GOOD company will do the maximum to give working drivers on new platforms as they are avelable.

For Example the Pinnacle DC30+ is not supposed to get drivers for windows XP. All other Pinnalce products are getting them.
After a product has been disconteniud you can't do much about it.

Yeah, you're right, but he was knocking M$ because the company didn't support hardware products made by someone else on the new OS. It would make sense that M$ would have decent driver support for most cards and they do in the latest OSes they have brought out. But, with space and time being limited, not every hardware part can be supported, thus the onus falls back to the manufacturer of the part.

It bugs me when people knock M$ incorrectly. Now when they create something with bugs and release a patch that has other bugs (which is typical), well then, bash away. :D

You can Knock M$ incorectly :rolleyes:

[Michel Petrucci]

thanks all of you for your interrest,
I just knock M$ because he is offering to "upgrade" without taking care about others manufacturers or devices users.
in fact the sames device witch works perfectly before with my previous Win version 9x an NT, simply doesn't work anymore.
Or should I uprgade or buy brain new device and true away that one witch I am happy with?
M$ coud simply avoid changing the part of the new software witch handle the device drivers???
I dont thing the changes of that "area" of the OSs would alter significatively its performances.?!
Instead.!! it should some others raison to modifies "things" witch works perfectly into unworking stuff.!
We are talking about M$. and all the OS we talk about are from them.

Actually changing the OS to a new version require changing the Kernel of the OS what will probabyl require diferant drivers.
Maybe not totaly diferant but diferant is several things.
