  Hi I solved it, please read because it might help you too!

  When I opened this thread I tried for 4 hours to solve this problem * and apparently a lot of people have problems with the installation procedure.

  When I installed the program, I noticed at the beginning in a small window that shows progress, he showed a folder he had created and had a random name composed of letters and numbers such as: 56eb37a890142, go and find him!

  In this case, it creates subfolders where the subfolder has the name «windowsinstaller»

  • Drive:\56eb37a890142\windowsinstaller\x86\windowsxp-KB942288-v3-x86.exe

  (Your path may be different, but the mine was created on a different driver/partition that my Windows driver.)

  During installation, I was going through all the steps (in fact I just leave the installation in the middle of the process, as it is, if I remember there are 3 steps, first unpacking, the other 2 steps is displayed in a new window, and I don't remember now I did the 2nd step, however, this is the 3rd step that fails but in this hack you do not go there)
  ... instead, once the 56eb37a890142 folder was created, I went in the subfolder and installed the

  • WindowsXP-kb942288-v3 - x 86 .exe

  Once this file has been installed, Windows automatically forced the closure of programs and handed over in market, after reboot, I returned to the

  random 56eb37a890142 of the folder and double-click the following file

  • Setup.exe

  All of a sudden the installation went through, obviously something is wrong with the installation program, I think it not to apply the update of windowsxp-kb942288-v3 - x 86 .exe, or somehow fail to do.

  One last thing on the randomness of the '56eb37a890142' folder, I have a low memory, if the installation failed, the folder would be removed, so we might have to make a copy of it.

  Edit: I checked the Windows Installer "windowsxp-kb942288-v3 - x 86 .exe '.

  It's a "Windows Installer 4.5 Redistributable", it can be downloaded separately from the link here below, we could try this instead of the procedure described above:

• Problem dark videoconference with WinLive Messenger and LifeCam VX-3000

  My LifeCam VX-3000 webcam cannot support a video call in Windows Live Messenger. I can text back OK, and sound and motion video work very well when I check the audio/video settings. When I try a video connection, the system hangs on my end... the other party may accept the call but my end still ringing and the video image is frozen... There is no sound during this video call attempt.   The system is XP Home SP3... all security is up to date. I use a 6 Mbit internet service.  I did a complete uninstall of Windows Live Essentials, re-installed components and get the same result. This Setup worked fine until a week ago.  This problem would have started at the time, I installed and started using MagicJack, but I tried to uninstall Magic Jack and the result is the same. Maybe another change is that Windows Live Messenger has offered an upgrade to a newer version that was made.  I'm looking for some ideas on any peripheral or software conflicts and methods to isolate or resolve them.

  Hello
  
  Method 1.
  First of all I ask you to re - install the Microsoft Life Cam software and drivers from the link below and then check out.
  http://www.Microsoft.com/hardware/download/download.aspx?category=ice
   
  Method 2.
  If the problem persists, perform a clean boot to find any conflicting with the Windows Live Messenger application.
  For more inoformation on boot, refer to the article below.

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/310353
  Note: Don't forget to set the computer to start normal, as mentioned in the above article.
  Also update the chipset drivers and check. You may need to contact the manufacturer of the computer for that.
  I hope this helps.

• LifeCam VX - 3000 Permission help?

  I recently bought a Microsoft LifeCam VX-3000 and have installed fine but when I go to the desktop icon to set the webcam it comes back with a message saying "Windows cannot access the specified device, path or file. You can not have the appropriate permissions to access the item. Can anyone offer help on this please? Thank you, Dave.

  I don't know exactly where the problem was.

  That's why I've included this way to reinstall.

  And I thought it would be a shortcut icon on your desktop, not the setup.exe itself.

  Have you looked into the start menu > programs > to find the Webcam program installed there?

  Then, you should be able to change the settings of it.

  If you > right click > Send to > shortcut icon on the desktop.

  See you soon.

• Microsoft LifeCam VX 3000"does not work"

  I have upgraded to windows 7 and I'm trying to re - install my LifeCam VX-3000 but wen I do, I get a message indicating the cam "does not work" and "the program will close." I installed the drivers supplied by microsoft (LifeCam 3.2) and nothing. I even tried to re - install disk but it says that it was not compatible with windows 7 (it was LifeCam 1.4). So now I have a webcam that I can't use yet is supposed to be compatible with Windows 7.

  I was using XP before and had the same problem, update drivers exactly the same problem has happened then so I had to stay with the drive, but now I can't do same. Any help to what to now please?

  Thanks for your reply... but he turns there where some .dll missing as some other programs didn't work either so I re-installed the reg files and it's ok now... Thanks anyway
