I was cleaning up an old box of computer parts the other day and ran across one of these cards too. I installed it into my XP machine and realized that I also could not find WDM drivers for it. After digging around on Google for information on the card I ran across generic WDM drivers for the Bt8XX video decoder chips called btwincap. So far this driver seems to work fine. The URL for the website is http://btwincap.sourceforge.net/. I can capture just fine from svideo or composite rca connectors on the card. I have no idea about how the driver works with the tv tuner part of the card because I use my DirecTV box svideo out directly to the card for channel tuning. Hope this helps. Enjoy :)
