Camera is not being found

<< < (14/14)

Shane:
The camera did work but only with 64 bit programs. We traced it down to a problem with the 32bit directshow filters. One of them was causing the problem. But the 64bit directshow filters still worked fine.

We used a cam test program I had found that had a 32bit and 64bit version, 64bit worked while 32bit failed. I did everything I could to fix the directshow filters but something was still wrong with it. :wink:

Indeed, Shane. And in short it is fair to say the system was very much fooked!

Everything seems fine now Shane. Aside from the Mouse curser thing. The rest i can live with for now. I will boot up the DVD once i have everything backed Up.

Once again, thank's for the many hours you spent sorting everything out, Shane. It was insightful , too.
I will let you know if any glitches appear as i go and what happens once i re install fresh, too.

Have a great week.

Mike...
