But is does not harm to check if your Java, Flash and Quicktime software are installed and up to date. But certainly check your DirectX software, since all video applications, including webcams, use DirectX for video processing. Try downloading the latest DirectX version and install it (Windows XP: DirectX 9.0c - Windows Vista: DirectX 10). http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Which-version-of-DirectX-is-on-your-computer Hope this helps.

Most likely the Windows 7 default webcam driver is not compatible with that webcam model. You can see if the manufacturer has a Window s7 driver for it, or try using a driver finder program to locate the right driver for your webcam and Windows 7.
