Watchport/V2 with Windows Live Messenger (MSN)

Hi,

I’ve been having a number of issues with this camera and certain installations. Specifically with MSN Messenger.

Im running:

Windows XP Media
Pentium D 2.8
1 Gig Ram

With msn messenger, I get one use out of the camera and then I have to restart the software. Which wouldnt be so bad, if every time upon connection it didnt crash. I realize this may be something with windows live software, but I have tested other camera connected and havent had any issues. I even went as far as to port forward all the msn ports to my local machine which did not help.

Has there been any possible driver updates to help correct these issues even possibly 3rd party?

Thanks for any help,

Dolaf

Dolaf,

What Watchport/V2 driver are you running?

You can determine this by opening the Release Notes (start menu shortcut in the “Watchport V2” or “Watchport Imaging” program group) and noting the version number at the top, as well as noting if it’s the DirectShow or TWAIN/AVI driver.

Are you seeing this problem with Windows Live Messenger or MSN Messenger? What version(s) are exhibiting this problem?
