New LifeCam drivers serious problem
Hellow everyone. I was so happy today when I found new LifeCam
drivers/software for Vista, so I downloaded it, installed and... was really disappointed Here's a problem. Before LifeCam become available I used my NX-6000 with Vista (x86) native drivers. It wasn't that great - some software didn't work such as Skype or Flash-based web-cam chats. Some software worked great - Live Messenger - every single time I started my webcam - it worked fine! What's now? After having installed LifeCam my NX-6000 webcam starts not every time I want it to. For example: I start my MS LifeCam - I see the image, then I start it again and I see black screen instead of video. If I unplug my webcam and plug it in again, my webcam work again. BUT NOT EVERYTIME - SOMETIMES I NEED TO RESTART MY PC. To cut my story short, after LifeCam 1.3 for Vista I need to unplug my camera (or restart my PC) after every time I use it (no matter how - it may be LifeCam, Messenger or Skype) - just one time and again to unplug. Sometimes I can use it twice (!!) before I need to unplug again ((((((((((((((((( Could anyone tell me how can I report this situation via email to the support team... I really want my NX-6000 funciton properly in Vista... |

New LifeCam drivers serious problem
I have the exact same problem... when I plugged my old logitech camera in,
Vista said flat out that this was not going to work. So i forked over the $100 for a Life Cam NX-6000 from Microsoft. Even though the box says that it is Vista compatible, the software in the box would not work. I thought it was cool that Vista found the correct software on Microsoft's site and began to download that for me... except I am have the exact same intermintent problems you are have. It works 25% of the time... and if you change the resolution.... forget about it... it will crash immediately. I guess I will have to wait for a patch. I have had it a week and I have found several programs that crash regularly besides this. "espoir" wrote: Hellow everyone.
