Updating drivers got me nowhere; however, run as admin did--the part about running a compatibility check.

So, I can now see the video in PT. BUT, the video window DISAPPEARS when PT is minimized even though it is checked in the Windows > menu! It doesn't reappear right away. It takes a bit of fussing to get it to come back.
Why is the compatibility check using Win 8 and there is no Win 10 check?
Man, I never had this much trouble with pirated software....just sayin'.
