Hey Dustydngo...
I would do a google search on the company or manufacturer of your device to see if you can locate them. I don't know why you wouldn't have those disks as normally they would be supplied with the item. I purchased a capture device from www.altoedge.com and it works great... Lucky me it had a drivers disk.

Dustydngo,

Not knowing anything about your adaptor, you can try VirtualVCR if your adaptor supports WDM drivers,

http://virtualvcr.sourceforge.net/html/virtualvcr/download.php

or Virtualdub if your adaptor supports VfW drivers.

http://sourceforge.net/project/downloadi...mirror=internap

www.Doom9.org has a nice writeup.

Oh yeah, you are still going to need drivers in order for VirtualVCR or VitualDub to recognize your adaptor. You should identify your adaptor and visit the manufacturer's website, and try to download the driver.
