    can't find driver for webcam
    « on: October 29, 2007, 01:55:57 PM »
    I have an older webcam and I lost the CD for it quite awhile ago, so I downloaded a few different drivers for it but none of them seem to be working, I'm also not completely sure what kind of webcam it is so if anyone can help that would be great. 
    Here's a picture of it in case anyone knows.  I'm pretty sure it's a logitech.

    A 2nd thread is not really neccessary...
    Did you try the suggestions in your other thread ? ?
    DLoad, install and run Everest Home and see what it reports the device as...

      I figured people who knew anything about Drivers would be more likely to come to this topic.  I downloaded drivermax, and it told me that the camera was a PC Camera (6029 CIF), but I don't know what to do after I found that out?

      At least post a link to your previous thread, so everyone knows what's going on. Please 8)
