Sorry, better use this following link for Downloading NewSoft patches to upgrade their SW Digital Converter to ver 1.13 and fix definitively the problem : http://uk.newsoft.eu.com/tech-support/patch-Search.asp

On this page you search downloads with :
Product = !Presto Digital Converter
OS = Windows
Version = 1.0

So you’ll find link for available Sw patches.

That’s all !!

I have just bought and installed the AV200u, but when I try to record the video I get a message in a small box saying “Record Error” and I can get no further.

The same thing happened to me with Plextor’s PX-AV200u video-capture device. It worked fine with my 32-bit Vista Home Premium, until I installed SP1. Then I got the blue screen of death. I see a similar review on Amazon.com. The company’s tech support is unhelpful, but offered to replace the unit. I am certain that won’t work. (When I briefly uninstalled SP1, I was again able to use the thing.) It’s a software or firmware problem.

Well it used to be compatible since around march 15 2008, but after some vista updates (maybe SP1), it causes blue screen crashes (memory dump etc.)

It would be nice if Plextor website was better organised as well to check for upgrades…(after checking, there is none)
