Hello everyone, Im new here…Found some info for stuff I was having problems on a while back and thaught I would give it a shot for this new problem.

The problem is that after I sign into msn, I send webcam and i can see myself in the camera thing(where my dp was) so i know it is a webcam that is detected. Then when the person accepts my webcam offer, my computer totally shuts out..I have a screenshot of the CPU usage,

As you can see it is crazy, that is when I try to close the MSN convo with the webcam(which never closes)…I am not infected with spyware or any virus’s, i dont know what to do :(…thanks if you can help me

Webcam model and drivers version might help.

I suspect your webcam drivers being the cause. Try capturing video with another software (ie: Windows Movie Maker for example) to check if the same behaviour occurs.
