| 1300163 | 2012-09-11 00:18:00 | Does anyone know of a good Webcam? Logitech gave my computer the Blue screen of death because I have WD Hard drives and could not take out the WD programs to install Logitech’s software with the help of Logitech’s tech support. Microsoft has the worst tech support I’ve seen in a long time. I called them up and I got transferred 9 times and the tech that was helping me didn’t know anything and just wanted to do a remote on my computer “Done that before”. HP has noise background Any suggestions? |

| 1300164 | 2012-09-11 00:29:00 | I bought a cheap webcam maybe 3yrs ago. Not that happy with it (was a typical fixed focussing Logitech). The Logitech 920 is ideal good it is a bit over $100 at Computer Lounge. IMO it's not the higher HD MP rating but the other stuff helps. Better cams will have a better lens like Carl Zeiss, with a lens coating. It has autofocus and macro ability if you were to put some concert tickets at it and show people. Better picture quality really, less of that bright areas on face or dark areas with that open window or when lights are on or with just that bed side light ..... Not too sure about the other brands. |

| 1300166 | 2012-09-11 00:54:00 | Did you uninstall that Acronis program?? Thats the main cause of the crashing. The webcam and the hdd are probably fine. | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||

| 1300169 | 2012-09-11 01:27:00 | Logitech (webcams) install alot of uneeded, buggy, useless software on the PC Ive seen that software cause issues . Uninstall ALL the logitech software, except the webcam driver, and your issues may dissapear. Logitech do make good webcams, its the bundled software thats often the issue. |

| 1300170 | 2012-09-11 02:38:00 | Thanks everyone for your posts. I can't put a Logitech webcam on my main computer and I really like them. After uninstalling the Acronis program, that solved my BSOD After taking Logitech webcam off my computer that too solved my BSOD with the help of a Logitech tech I guess I'll just have to get a Microsoft webcam and if and when I have problems "I'll be back" |
