I recently bought a Logitech Webcam. After installing it, it caused my PC to malfunction. When trying to launch the Video application. My PC restarted after launching the Video application. The webcam worked as I saw video of myself for 2-4 seconds before the PC restarted.
I loaded the software. Launched the Video Application. PC restarted. I uninstalled software checked other programs. PC was fine. I installed the software from the website. same thing happened. Launched Video application PC restarted.
I returned the webcam for a new one. Same thing happened. PC restarts after connecting the webcam and launching the Video application. I did the same thing I tried software from both the website and from the disk.

I have Windows XP sp3. All other programs seem fine. Any ideas?

Thanks.
 
Its the Quickcam for notebooks. Im installing ti on a regular pc, but I read its just a redesigned Quickcam Pro.

I am going to try and reinstall it a couple more times. It seems that people who have had troubles like this have had hit and miss luck reinstalling the software.

I am going to try iinstalling it on my other pc before returning it a second time.
 
I returned the webcam for a Gigaware Webcam. It refuses to display any video.

It shows up in devices says it is working. No matter how many times I reinstall the software/drivers. No picture. Update driver rollback driver uninstall driver reinstall wait to install driver then connect Webcam... Everything checks out normal and working properly.

No luck.

I read at Radio shack from a review that it is not XPSP3 compatible and that there is a special "Webcam Chipset Driver".

Anyone ever had a problem like this with the Gigaware Webcam? Or can anyone confirm what I read?
 
Worked first time while loading it on my friend's 5 year old laptop.

Im going to check with the motherboard company (both pcs have same MB) and maybe Video card settings.
 
I have logitech quickcam pro for notebook the driver installation is good but that is for windows vista maybe you installed wrong driver? Try older diver cd that come with webcam to see if it works if not download the latest driver from the website for xp not vista
