• Where can I find the software download online for the LifeCam VX-800

  Bought the LifeCam VX-800 today. Online and followed the steps in the Quick Start Guide (it turns out it isn't a quick start in all)

  to see that there is no software available for download online for this webcam? Can anyone tell me please where to find this software downloads or why it is not available?

  Sorting Microsoft. What a waste of £14.95 per minute.

• Microsoft Lifecam Vx 800 won't work.

  Hi, I can't get this cam to work. In Windows live messenger, it detects sound via the microphone, but the camera does not work.

  Ive had a quick glance at the resolution of the problems on the microsoft Web site, and none of the solutions seem to work.

  Method 1: When I am looking for the drivers I can't find. Theres no "microsoft lifecam" in program files or System 32.

  No other methods seem to work, I went into the registry but I can't find the Manager to Logitec so I guess that that is correctly uninstalled.

  Im stuck help would be appreciated.

• Vista cannot locate drivers for my new LifeCam

  Original title: problems with the LifeCam VX-800 and Vista

  I have a LifeCam VX-800, he just bought. Plugged in, and Vista is unable to locate the proper drivers. It is http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929087, but when I click on the page it suggests looking for the drivers, there is no drivers for this webacam. Can someone please? Have tried reinstalling the drivers; does not work!

  Is there anywhere else that I can get the drivers, because they are not on this site? And how is this plug and play product?

  Thank you very much

  OK, maybe you can try this - go to this page:

  http://www.Microsoft.com/hardware/en-us/downloads

  and click on "WebCams" and choose LiveCam VX-1000 instead of VX - 800. Select your Vista operating system and try to download and install "LifeCam 3.2 32-bit and 64-bit Windows Vista (exe)".

  Note - before installing the driver, unplug your WebCam and Plug after installation.

• webcam VX-800 photo is tinted green. has no parameters property

  I recently replaced my old vx-1000 with the vx-800, in the hope of having a better webcam. Unfortunately, at the time of purchase, I met many problems.

  1. the image is tinted green, and I can't find the video settings or properties to change that.

  2. the image is laggy and the voice sounds terrible, which is worse than my old camera.
  3. I can't find a program for this camera to use Logitech or microsoft.
  I am very disappointed, but I guess overall, I want to know how to change the settings of the image or if there is a compatible Logitech program for this camera.

• 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.
  How to configure Windows XP to start in a "clean boot" State
  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.
