| 105697 | 2002-12-13 08:15:00 | My MSN program has decided not to activate the USB webcam on my PC when Video communication is selected . I can receive video OK, when I select picture in picture I get a small black rectangle where the picture should be . Naturally no video is received at the other end . Ive run the webcam camera program simultaneously while using MSN, the camera works fine . Is the USB port location critical for my Webcam? Ive noticed this is the case for my HP1000 printer . The Printer USB is direct connection to the motherboard, where’s it will not work off the USB fly leads . Ive been unable to locate any switch in MSN to select a camera for Video conferencing, any help appreciated Thanks… . John . |
