Hi, i have some old
I've never seen a universal web cam driver so far, I don't believe they make one.
and your model no that you have given is not in list .how ever i have found a driver that might help you
click here for driver of GENIUS VIDEO CAM
however, if you have a sticker on it with the FCC ID...then you can look
that up to find out who made it and see if the OEM has any drivers.
Otherwise, you might have to crack it open and look at any names on
chips inside. I'm pretty sure it's probably an OEM deal and the same
camera is sold by lots of various distributors.
I will tell you the largest manfactuer i've seen of Webcams is
Omnivision. I've had 4 or 5 offbrand webcams that have been Omnivision
OEM products. You might consider trying those drivers.
I lost my cd key
send me a prudoct key and serieal number for video cam series v2
