Hi,
I have a computer running windows vista x64 and I got from a friend a TV card called TV champ, it's based on some ancient panasonic chipset and there aren't any drivers for vista (not even 32 bit); so now I need a way to use this card (it's going to be a one time thing, just to transfer some analog tapes to DVD). Can I use a virtual machine to use the card? or will I have to dual boot?
thx,
Ziv :)

dual boot is the way if there are no vista drivers. Virtual machines have some abaility to directly use the hosts USB but not PCI.
