| 743834 | 2009-02-01 08:37:00 | Hi Guys, I have a dse webcam (www.dse.co.nz) and have had it for a while and today decided to crank it out and get in touch with some rellies in Aussie. I installed driver from the website, and did everything the pdf told me to do but cant seem to get the bloody thing going, microphone works fine, skype tells me I have no cam connected but still allows me to configure the mircophone that is part of the webcam, anyone got any ideas? running winxp cheers Mik |

In the software that comes with the DSE Cam there should have been a Video Program called Arcsoft VideoImpression - that's one way of testing the CAM. BUT its on CD, and as far as I know not down loadable. There is bound to be some other Cam /editing software about that will do the same. The drivers from DSE site are only to run the CAM, not to actually allow capture/viewing. |

| 743837 | 2009-02-01 09:43:00 | Most cams will also work in my computer (if the drivers have been installed properly, and if its WIA compliant) Does it show an icon here, and does it show a pic, if you double click on it? |
