Re: MSFT VX6000 Lifecam not showing in "Scanners & Cameras" Considering that I am English and have a degree in it, not sure how else I
could explain it.
I had no problems installing the camera using MSFT's Vista drivers from
their website. Considering it is a Microsoft product and Vista is also a
Microsoft product, why doesn't it show up in the Scanner and Cameras module?
As I said, it shows fine in XP. I'm just assuming that it is a glitch with
Vista awaiting some sort of fix down the line.
never mind, it isn't really that important.
