Re: my hp pavillion webcam

Yahoo Messenger is not fully compatible with Vista yet. They are working on an
update to be released soon. It looks pretty nifty from the preview.

Can you use Windows Live Messenger?

RE: my hp pavillion webcam

How do you turn ON the webcam? When i am on Live messenger, and choose:
``make a new videoconversation``. Then a error comes up: ``You are using the
webcamera in another program, or it is not turned ON``....
What do i do? I have Pavilion Entertainment PC dv6000, and intergrated
webcam..

Re: my hp pavillion webcam

You can only use a webcam with one program at a time..
Do you have any other programs that may be using it? Like Skype, ICQ, etc.?
