Peter,

No, I've not heard of this situation before. Did this problem commence
after installing the ATI TV Wonder? If it did, then there likely is a
compatibility issue between the ATI application and the Lifecam software. At
least that's a logical connection.

If it were me, I'd reinstall the Lifecam software, simply as a last resort
to address the problem. If that fails, your guess is a good as mine.
Possible additional troubleshooting steps include contacting ATI Support
and/or Microsoft Support for additional information.

Information on how to contact Microsoft Support can be found at the
Microsoft website. This site is a user's group, composed of users, though
there are also plenty of experts here who contribute to helping others. Just
some thoughts for your consideration. Someone else may have an answer.
