Any recommended tethering software for Nikon D3100?

Hi,

Thanks for the replies. I looked into digicamControl and it actually doesn't have the Live View function for the NikonD3100, so I am looking for other software that will let me tether it to a laptop. I have heard of a 'DIYPhotobits' program that may have compatibility for the D3100. Does anyone know anything about this program and if it would be suitable for tethering a D3100 to a laptop for astrophotography, and checking focus etc in a test shot on a laptop screen before doing the main shots? Would anyone have any other options for tethering the D3100 to a laptop like this? All the programs I have looked into so far apart from DIYPhotobits have not been compatible with my DSLR. I would buy a laptop for this which would probably be new and Windows 10 and this program (or another) would have to work on that with the D3100.
