Chat Line

I have Windows XP and Msn Messenger and frequently use the Chat Line etc.
Now I have a Web Cam LifeCamVX-1000. I should like to carry on
communicating with my friend (who also has a Web Cam but he is deaf so
obviously we cannot use the Audio link but we would like to carry on sending
messages to one another and see one another etc How can we do that. Write
messages and watch one another with no speech.

Re: Chat Line

Greetings,

It should continue to work. However, you will need to set up Messenger for the new device.
To do so, press the Alt key on the keyboard in any Messenger window to bring up the menu bar,
then choose Tools, and then Audio and Video setup.

After that, just go through the wizard and it should work. Also, if you want to truly avoid
using audio /w video, you can bring up the menu bar again using Alt, choose Actions, then
Video, and then 'Share my webcam' (your contact will have to do the same thing).

Re: Chat Line

When you open a txt chat window with your friend, under your image will be a
small webcam symbol. Click this, and select 'show my webcam'. You continue
to chat via txt, there's no audio yet you can see each others webcam this
way.
