Tried to set up a new profile to guide using the Uranus C camera from PlayerOne.  PhD two did not find the native windows driver but did load the ASCOM driver.  This seemed to cause memory problem with NINA but did not cause a problem with SharpCap.    Any  thoughts?

PHD2 doesn't support the native camera interfaces for this camera but the ASCOM driver should work.  If this caused problems, you need to communicate with the camera vendor to get them resolved, the problems will lie with their ASCOM driver.  The ASCOM interface is common to all cameras so applications like PHD2 don't need to be aware of the unique properties of each camera.

The Uranus c camera produces some large images for guiding so you might consider binning it and/or using the subframe option
