Size: 290,775
Date: 9-17-1999
downloadnow.gif (315 bytes)
(Supports WaveTop software!)

These Win95/98 drivers enable the CC feature when used with the TV MAX tuner application V1.63 or above. These drivers do not support Windows 98's WebTV, but do operate in Windows 98 using the TV Max application.

A Windows 98 WDM driver to support WEB TV is available below.

Installation instructions:

     
  1. After downloading the file, run the zx84823d.exe program to unzip the files to an empty folder or directory on the hard drive. (If you cannot locate the file you downloaded, use the Windows Find command to search for the zx84823d.exe program on your hard disk.)
  2. Remove the old drivers using the NUKE848.EXE program found on this page and reboot.
  3. When Windows detects the card and requests drivers, point Windows to the location you unzipped the files to above.
  4. Refer to the instructions in the users manual for more details.

 

Windows 98SE / 2000 Driver

 
Filename: tvmaxwdm-beta.exe
Size: 136,717
Date: 11-9-1999
downloadnow.gif (315 bytes)
This file contains both the first Windows 98SE/2000 driver and a Microsoft Video capture utility (AMCAP.EXE). This driver only operates in Win98 2nd edition and supports the NTSC TV Tuner only and therefore can only be used in North American region. According to Conexant, Windows 98 (1st edition) has a bug that will not allow the BT-848 WDM driver to work.
The WDM driver is totally incompatible with all the software that is using the old Video For Windows (VxD) driver. So, after installing the WDM driver, VDO phone, the TVMax tuner application, VideoCap and other software using the VXD driver will not work. At the present moment, only AmCap and WebTV supports the WDM driver. Therefore only install the WDM driver when WebTV is desired.

Installation instructions:

  2. Refer to the readme.txt file included in the file for installation instructions to remove the current driver and install the new driver. (This file will be found in the folder you unzipped the files to in step #1)
Note: Although Zoltrix provides this Windows 98 2nd edition WDM driver, Zoltrix does not provide technical support for this beta driver.
