Cheers Gaz, but surely the cam manufacturer will only take responsibility for the cam being fully functional in Windows?? I dunno, ill try both!
Right Mike, this is obviously a problem with XP service Pack 1 because your right i have uninstalled it and hey presto it works!! But this is no good i need service pack 1!!! I think ill contact yahoo and let them know that they have a bug. Thanx again Mike.
p.s Nhyrvana, I have tried vidcap.exe and that didnt work either. I mean the cam worked fine, just not in Yahoo itself. Thanx for trying tho.
Mike your the Man. I do have SP1 and i have a feeling its since i installed that
ill remove it and see what happens.
Thanx
Daz
no i am not doing this when Yahoo is closed how could i if i am able t see the preferences screen? The problem is definately yahoo and Logitech Quick Cam because im using my friends pc who has exactly the same camera and that doesnt work as well. Both using XP Pro as well. Yahoo Help didnt help Oreo but thanx!! lol thanx guys hope someone knows. Or if someone also has a quick cam (can’t believe im the only one because they must be te most popular cheapest cam on the market) please let me know.
Thanks for trying to help. I did exactly what you said but it still doesn’t work. I couldn’t quite understand what that was supposed to do but hey.. it was worth the try. My cams working fine, but Yahoo isn’t. The camera source and camera settings buttons are still greyed out. If anyone else has any idea please please post a reply.
Cheers

Sorry Jess have to agree with Netti on this one. I have a xDSL connection and I have a dynamic IP address.
Guys and Gals!!! Sucess, I can’t tell ya what did it cause nothing really did just installing and un-installing Yahpoo Messenger seems to have done the trick!! Whoopee!!!!!!!
I am now running the US version.
Thanx Again
Happy Daz 😀
think i have the UK version at the moment which doesn’t have the webcam button (all the installing and un-installing) but im almost certain that i have tried that but i thought that it just started the cam for you. I think when I tried before it just crashed like it always does!!
P.s I have since downloaded Eyeball chat and thats fine!!
p.s. I know its definately Yahoo because the Cam works fine inside windows and i’ve noticed that when I go to the webcam page in preferences the “camera settings” and “camera source” buttons are both greyed out!!
If anyone can prevent me from spending any more money on my computer then it would be appreciated!!
Thanx Everyone! Kinda, you see the problem that really bugs me is that I had the Bloody thing working for ages!!!! and do u think I can get it to work?? NO!
Freddie I totally agree it does suck but I would like still to use it! Maybe I will buy a new cam and go from there. I’ll let you all know how I get on.
