Pinnacle Capture driver not installed when plugged in?

Hello, I bought a Pinnacle USB from lordsmurf back in February, I haven't got around to use it until now but when I plug in, I find in device manager that it says "Pinnacle Capture driver not installed". I tried installing a drive I thought was Pinnacle but that didn't work. How do I get this capturer to work? Do I need to install a specific drive?

I just now updated the drivers post, both driver packages are now attached. https://www.digitalfaq.com/forum/ima...lies/smile.gif

Instructions:
Install drivers, reboot is required.
Start Crossbar Thing, set to s-video crossbar. Close.
Then open VirtualDub, capture mode.
Preview mode, not overlay.
Set to s-video if needed (if not already showing s-video), should look perfect.

- Do not use VirtualDub2.
- Crossbar Thing is only need for post-XP (Vista/7/8/10)
- For some XP systems, Overlay may work fine on the 710. It does for me.

Okay I managed to install the drive and it shows up on VirtualDub now. I also manage to make the Crossbar show the device and set it to S-Video and then set it Preview instead of Overlay. I'm not sure where the set to s-video is but currently nothing is being shown on the capture.

Edit: It also bluescreen'ed my computer when I opened the Crossbar Thing mid-way unplugging the capture device. I'm on Windows 11 so I'm guessing it not compatible?

Windows 11… not surprising you’re running into difficulties.

Are you able to use your capture device with a computer running an older version of Windows?
