run time error "75" - Path/File access error

I have an aplication program which works with a web-camera which works fine
on w2k and XP.

It installed normally on Vista and on plugging the camera Vista detected it
coprrectly (including the model of the camera) and completed the
installation saying that the camera installed successfully and ready for
work.
However an attempt to tun the application resulted in a run time error
"75" - Path/File access error

What might be the reason?
Could it have to do with Vista security which prevents access to a file?

Hello aa,

Try to run the program with the run as option.

Best regards

Hello aa,

Rightclick the program shortcut and you see run as choose administrator.
Maybe you have to press the shift button during rightclick.

Best regards
