I am trying to use the DCA75 software provided by Peak Elec on a Linux Mint 21.3 PC  
With Wine, the program runs but I cannot connect the DCA75 on USB  
With VirtualBox, I have to install an image of a Win version. I am looking for the lightest possible version (starting with Win 7 or even XP) because that PC is rather old and rather slow.  
Besides, I do not have to install a lot of program on that VirtualBox.

Since I am almost a noob in Linux, any guidance would be appreciated.
