Windows 10: How to use an outdated webcam in windows 10?

I have an old webcam which i found to be manufactured by "Quantum ","QHMLP group" with a model no. on the back that says

QHM480LM.

I am trying to make it work with my current laptop.But it seems i cannot due to absence of driver.Iwent to device manager,it is listed under "cameras" as USB VIDEO DEVICE but "update drivers " doesn't get me anywhere.

i tried finding driver with the link:

https://www.driveridentifier.com/sc...1FB40769D424E99CD153E61/USB\VID_0AC8&PID_307B


but it has drivers for win 7 latest.Is that link safe?

will it work on win 10? OR can i do something to make it work like download an...emulator or so????


The hardware ids listed in the device manager are as follows:



USB\VID_0AC8&PID_307B&REV_0100

USB\VID_0AC8&PID_307B


Any help is appreciated. thanks in advance!
