Easycap DC60 - driver installation failed on XP

[ofivan]

Hi all,
I tried installing the driver on a PC with XP (2 different PCs) and got the same behavior:
USB2.0 capture device installation wizard finishes successfully.
Afterwards I plugged in the device, then performed installation of new hardware - which succeeded.
Now when I look at the "Device manager" - I see under "Imaging devices" the "Syntek STK1160".
Then it starts to freak out - the Device manager refreshes itself many times - the Sytntek appears with yellow mark and then it disappear. Also I have windows messages that the USB can perform faster (while the USB is 2.0 - also defined in the BIOS).
Then windows message: "USB Device not recognized".
Restart doesn't help, uninstall and reinstall doesn't help.
Just a note - I installed in on a PC with Vista and it was installed successfully (driver name was Syntek STK1150...).
Any ideas what is wrong?
Another thing is that the device gets really really worm when connected (also to the Vista PC) - does that suppose to be like that, or is there something wrong with the specific device I have?

Thanks in advance!

If you have tried it on 2 different pcs using the same operating platform and it does the same on both, it has to be a driver issue or an operating issue with the particular easycap you have purchased.

Why would it do it in XP and not Vista? You would think it would be the other way round.

Try downloading drivers and reinstall from the downloaded ones.

Heat from the device.
They are normally warm, not hot. If it is getting hot it is a sign of a very cheap circuit board.

That's the problem with fakes, they are all different. You do not know what you are getting.
