I am getting the following error message: The video device cannot be used at this time because there has been an error when starting the device. I was able to download sound and video but for no reason this has just stoped. Can someone help.
 
Goto "my computer", device manager, and find the device in the list. Delete
it and restart your computer. It will tell you "new hardware found" and
reinstall it.

Problem solved. Dick Sartori had part of the answer for me. See his comments. Also I found that the software from my digital still camera was deleting the driver for the analog camera I have. So what I did was left Win XP find its own drivers and did not install the drivers supplied by the manufacturer of my digital camera. All works well again. Both analog video and digital still camera.
