the drivers bee installed twice

Viirtualdub give a avi file with interlace and it so bad . the codes don't appears to change that down loads a few and nothing give a watchable picture

Possibly a driver problem. Windows XP was the last OS that included drivers for a lot of this equipment. With Windows 7 and above, you often have to find the driver, and then you often have to experiment with various compatibility modes when running the capture software.

If the DVC100 presents itself to the OS as a DV device and if you are connected using Firewire, then you can use Scenalyzer as the capture software. I always found this to be the best capture program.

OK thanks got the dvc100 working at last with sound
Now for a problem with tmpg it cant find it
and in virtualdub I cant get any codes to remove the interlace from a vhs tape

You handle the interlacing and do other filtering after the capture. Capture as lossless AVI and keep it lossless until the very final format so you don't degrade the video quality every time you reencode.
