I need some techie help please, when i load old vhs film on to my comp via a Win TV usb capture device it only captures in black and white, this has only started to happen since i changed computers it captured ok on my old comp, i thought it was the capture device at fault so i purchased another one exactly the same model but it still only captures b/w i have also changed the leads and have used a vhs and dvd recorder to play up the films but its still the same, but when i load film from my digi-cam the colour is fine so its not the graphic card i dont think ? i would be greatfull of any suggestions, thanks in advance for any advice !happy!

Have you got the latest drivers for the card? Also, are the drivers your using compatible with the operating system? What OSare you running? XP or VISTA ?

Drivers can be found here:

Hi Snow Patrol, i have loaded and reloaded the drivers several times from the software that came with the device but they wouldnt be the latest ones, i have looked at the list from your link so which ones should i download the device is Win-TV model 566, thanks for your help.

What OS are you using? XP home? XP Pro? XP-MCE? Vista?

Also another thing is to check you caputuring in 'pal' because if your caputuring pal, but the settings are set to NTSC you will get black and white...

Sorry i forgot to mention i am running XP thanks.

OK well I had a look, and its not as apparent as it should be... I narrowed it down to 2, and I even went so far as to download one of the driver packs myself to see if there was a 'readme' file in it... But no... Nothing...

So Im NOT gonna advise you any further myself, but I would suggest that you contact customer support, (On the left of the driver page) and get them to tell yah...

Sorry I cant be more specific, but I dont wanna tell you the wrong thing...

I will again advise you to check that your capturing in PAL and not NTSC

ok thanks for your help !thumbsup!
