Default This worked for me

Hi, I hope this helps you. it is a solution I found on another forum that worked for me. here is a copy of that post ..............



This is a walkthrough of how i got my Ads-Tech DVD DX2 working with Vista.

Downloaded the following from DX2 Download page on the ADS-Tech site:

Capwiz Beta (testing) 3.8.0.15 (English)
Beta (unsupported) Driver for Vista

Extract both files to My documents or whatever folder you choose!!




1. Plug in your DVD DX2

2. Completely uninstall Capwiz and Ulead software from the computer.

3. Right Click on My Computer..Click on Properties..Click Device Manager..

4. In Device Manager, locate "Sound Video and Game controllers" and click the plus sign to expand the category..

5. Locate the listing for the DVD Xpress DX2 and right-click, selecting to uninstall the device. Select to delete the driver files as well..

6. Once uninstalled, disconnect the device from your USB.

7. Close Device Manager and then locate the file, remsvcs.reg in the folder that you extracted earlier. Double click on the file.

8. Confirm to make the changes and once they are complete, you should reboot the system.

9. Once Booted, Install Capwiz from the Extracted Files. I got a box coming up during installation saying that there was already capwiz software on my computer. It installs it anyway..

10. Plug the unit into the USB port. Better using the one that goes the the motherboard.

11. When prompted, select to install software for the device.

12. If prompted, do not allow the system to connect to the internet to find drivers. In some systems, this causes the drivers that were published for Windows XP to be installed. This should not occur and it will cause problems if it does.

13. Select to "Browse My Computer for Driver Software."

14. Click "Let Me Pick from a list of Device Drivers."

15. Click Have Disk and then Browse. navigate to the extracted files, The Beta Vista driver you downloaded from the site.

16. Click to open Vista_x64. Then Click ok. Then click next. Once the installation completes, restart your computer.

Now you should be able to open up Capwiz without it saying: Capwiz needs to update driver.

This method i wrote down here worked for me. I just finished recording several VHS tapes onto my computer..

good luck
