Musical Fidelity V-DAC Windows driver

Hi,
I bought Musical Fidelity V-DAC - I know old stuff But I wanted to enjoy it, but my Windows 10 do not recognise it. Can anyone help me to find drivers for it?
Many thanks, Peter

Have you checked the Musical Fidelity web site? According to their web site there is a Win 10 V-DAC driver available for download.

Yes, sure. I was looking at musical fidelity website and general in google. But no success. All what Ive found was driver for USB musical fidelity, but, for Link 1 for example. It seams not suitable for V-Dac. When I run it, it says "to install the driver you need to plug the hardware in" Despite V-DAC is switched on, and plugged to PC the software cannot find it.
Tha's why I ask here. Maybe someone has the driver and I can try manually upload to the windows

hello friends! I just wanted to let you all kow, that it works. It was my USB cable that was broken. I've changed the USB cable, and DAC works without any issue.

If you are going to use the VDAC, ditch the wall wart and get a small linear supply to power it. Will be a definite step up in SQ.

Many, many moons ago I used to modify these. The new PS was the first thing to do. The Pyramid power supplies work well and not a lot of money.
