I am looking for the drivers and software for the HIKIVision DS4004m capture card. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Nobody can help you :(

your card has embedded serial number which has to match
with license file inside software

the only way for you is to read "serial number" then to create license file

Would going right to HIKVision.com work? I got these cards at an auction, when I bought a pallet of old surveillance equipment.

Did you search google yet?

I found something straight away, but im reluctant to post a URL as its located in China, however Hikvision is Chinese ... anyway PM me if you want to try this one.

but you still may need that serial number like ak357 said ..

Rory

about 10 company in China write software for HIK

"HIK" themself do not provide good DVR software

but "license file" algorithm generation is different between them

Oh ok .. yeah this one is called orient ..

I've gone to the HikVision website (translated), I see other 4004 cards but not mine. On the back of the card are four stickers with each with an 8 digit number. I would assume these are the serial numbers for each channel. In front of numbers are "DVRDVS". I dont know what this means, but each card ( I have two) has different numbers.

Thanks Rory.. I will try this and see what happens.

by the way forget to mention

DVR software has little utility to read card serial number

How can I find out who wrote software for the cards I have? Or is that even possible?

rory,
That was the correct software. Thanks

Cool ... \:D/

hello jpetrilla,

we are a software writer for the DS card.but your DS4004M card is too old,our software don't support your card .we feel happy to hear the good news form you.

The only bad thing about the software is, it is a 21 day trial version.
