Orion Starshoot G3 and 64 bit drivers

Wondering if anybody else is getting the same issue or has found a workable fix.

Sometime back I bought an Orion Starshoot G3 but I've been unable to get it to work on my 64 bit Laptop with Astrotortilla. I put it aside and used the DSLR instead but would like to get it working.

Selected as an "Ascom Camera" in AstroTortilla and then "Orion G3 Camera". I
get a message "Incompatible Driver (Ascom.OrionG3CameraDriver.Camera) This 32bit only driver won't work in a 64bit application even though it is
correctly registered as a 32bit COM driver. Please contact the driver
author and request an updated driver."

I've provided detail on the issue to Orion Support asking if they are familiar with the issue or have a fix but the response is less than engaged.

"Dear Bob Stephens : Thank you for contacting Orion.
This is all the software we currently have for the G3 Color CCD Camera. See link below.

Clear skies and good observing,
