Re: licam vx5000

hi mate thank you for your input but still can't get it to work so have

like a logitech.

- Disconnect the cam from the USB ports

- Download latest motherboard chipset drivers
- Save file to Desktop
- Disable antivirus software, for install of drivers.
- Install motherboard chipset drivers
- Re-enable antivirus
- Reboot

- Save file to desktop
- Disable the antivirus, during this new install process
- Double click on the "downloaded" LifeCam driver install file
- When requested, connect the cam back to a USB. Only reconnect the
cam when the driver request it and not before.

HI i tried everything you suggested and still no joy the error is the same
and the camers software will not run.

Are you using the direct on-board USB ports?

Have you installed the motherboard chipset drivers? These tend to give
the settings, to XP, to correctly control the USB ports? I have seen
problems where the chipset drivers needed to be installed correct
before my cam can be active at boot up. Until my chipset drivers were
installed, the "connected" cam disappeared until I disconnected /
reconnected it.
