Acer Orbicam
I've been struggling with Acer OrbiCam for over a year. Cannot adjust it
with Acer software so resort to Windows Live Instant Messenger which permits minimal adjustment. In Instant Messenger however if I try to use the Advanced Settings panel everything shuts down ! Acer now finally admit that the Cam is to be used/intended for still photo clips only !!!...You belive that garbage folks ? If one wants to use it for Video or as a Instant Messenger Cam then Acer advise that we use 3rd. party software...which they will not support. Anyone know of software other than Microsoft IM that we can use to adjust the Cam settings ?...Thanks: Doug. zorro4141" wrote: Try removing all files from your "pictures" directory.

Acer Orbicam is a generic name that Acer uses for many different webcams from many different manufacturers. All the Acer computers I've tested that came with Vista and have a built in webcam work fine. Some older models that came with XP don't work as well. Did your computer come with Vista? What is the model number? -- Kerry Brown MS-MVP - Windows Desktop Experience: Systems Administration http://www.vistahelp.ca/phpBB2/ http://vistahelpca.blogspot.com/ |

Acer Orbicam
I am really struggling with this ACER Orbicam problem. Yes, moving all files out of the pictures folder allows me to open the Orbicam application without it crashing, but still the camera shows nothing.... Black screen.. There must be an answer to this... (How on earth can this be the right solution!) ACER Aspire 9410Z Vista 100% up to date with microsoft.. The latest ACER updates all installed and up to date... Someone must know the full solution to this problem ? Please??
