I have another solution to this….the solution that worked for me was to plug my webcam directly to an onboard USB slot…previously it was plugged into a PCI slot with 4 USB ports on it.

hope this helps.

I resolved my problem by plugging the camera directly into an onboard USB port. Originally it was plugged into a PCI USB port (used to a 4 more USB ports to my computer).

Hope this helps….now I have to troubleshoot audio. I can receive from one friend, but I can’t transmit. Both volume indicators are working on my side, but he doesn’t see my volume indication on his side.

any luck with this? I am seeing the same thing.

The audio/tuning wizard shows the webcam working correctly, but when I offer a webcam to someone, it shows black on my side and they don’t see me.

The one weird thing I saw was when I click on Tools –> Webcam Settings, my Logitech webcam doesn’t show…but the audio/video wizard shows it just fine.
