Re: audio and video setup freezes windows live messenger

Hi,

i don't have a straight answer to your problem, but it might
be an idea just to try to install an other webcam.

maybe it is possible to borrow one and see how it turns
out. it's not the best idea, but spending lots and lots of time
can be very frustrating.

good luck with it
