Webcam won't work
« on: January 02, 2009, 07:40:22 PM »
I installed the drivers ect for my new webcam and when I go to access it, a prompt appears that says "webcam is being used by another application". I called the manufacturer and they had me do several installs/uninstalls and reboots to no avail. I got a different webcam and the same thing happens. Does anyone have any suggestions to get this sucker working?

You try to access the camera with what program? Do you have any other startups, which may be claiming webcam (instant messenger programs, for instance)?
