Since installing the Dell upgrade to Vista my Logitech QuickCam Messenger
only works on video the is no audio. I have installed the new Vista
compatable driver from the Logitech website but on the adio tuning wizard
screen no sound is detected. Has anyone had the same problem?
 
Hi Weschris,

Many webcams require a firmware update, not just an driver update, to run
properly under Vista. Check with Dell on your particular model.

When I first installed Vista the webcam was updated automatically would this
have included a firmware update?
 
Hi,

No, that is usually supporting software and driver updates, files used by
the operating system to address the webcam. A firmware update is a change to
the instruction set that is housed in the electronics of the webcam itself.

Logitech have a support site you should visit to get Vista drivers and
software for your webcam.. Logitech does not charge for this service..

Ironic. I bought a Logitech Quickcam Pro 5000, because my old Intel webcam
wasn't compatible with Vista.
This one works fine on Vista.

Which model do you have?
 
its a quickcam lkd9 if that helps

A lot of Logitech stuff doesn't work with Vista. There's nothing thay can do
about it; you can find some discussion on this by searching the web.

My problem is that having tried and failed to install a webcam, at every
bootup I get a message about the Camera Connection Wizard failing, and can't
find a way to remove this.

Microsoft won't let me connect to their on-line help because they say my
email address is incompatible with their system (you have to use hotmail or
something and *I* don't want to).

Regards
 
This cam is quite old and quite discontinued. I gave mine to my daughter and
replaced it with a newer Vista compatible cam.

You need to lower your pride and acquire a hotmail account. You only need
to use it for Microsoft purposes.

I too have problems with a Logitech Quickcam and Vista. The camera works fine but I have a continual message saying that the Camera Connection Wizard has a problem. It seems the only solution is to obtain a Vista friendly Webcam !

Which Logitech QuickCam?
What driver version?

No problem with Logitech QuickCam Pro 5000 and version 11 .0 Vista drivers.
