| VX-3000 Great CAM |
Installation was just pop in the CD, go through the prompts, hookup the camera's usb connection and that is all. Well, you can adjust the camera for a better view. You need to create a hotmail account (Windows Live Mail) to connect to others using IM. I like this camera. |

| Great item, Great Value, Difficult To Install |
So, I went ahead and bought the two pack of web cams, after reading the reviews already posted, which seemed to indicate that with Windows Vista, I would have a problem with installation. And I did. I installed to two laptops (both less than a year old - running windows vista service pack 1) and it installed flawlessly on the newer laptop (that had service pack 1 already installed on it out of the box). The laptop that was upgraded to service pack 1, had multiple problems during installation. I finally was able to get the video working, but the microphone feature would not work. After trial and error, going through the control panel to the device manager, I was able to manually get the microphone to work by selecting 'usb microphone' or something like that for the unknown device and then it worked great.
The picture and audio are both really good, especially considering I paid $50 for two webcams. They work great with the new windows live messenger. I took one star off in the review because of the difficulty with installation. |
