Hi Lambeofgod,

Welcome to Vista Forums.

You will need to install the webcam driver first, then plug in the webcam. You can get the 32 bit Vista driver for the VC0303 here:

Vimicro Products


After the webcam and driver is installed, you will need need to run the Audio and video setup in Windows Live Messenger (WLM). In WLM, click on the Show menu icon next to paint brush icon, Tools, then Audio and video setup.

Hope this helps,
Shawn
