My sister and I recently installed Logitech QuickCam S550 and downloaded Skype. We are able to hear each other but a Video Call fails. something about camera in use. We see the black screen with rotating circle which quickly disappears.jLogitech help did not solve the problem just a repitition of a help instruction. We both have Vista Home Premium Sp1. Has anyone solved a similar problem. We would appreciate a solution. Thanks, GordonHS

To answer my own question; We started the Logitech Webcam first. We should have started the Skype program and clicked "Start Video". Now, all is well. GordonHS
