Hi, My computer does not detect my CD PCL-350KM webcam with headset. What can I do?

This problem can occur if:

Solution:

LifeCam Drivers not found

First off, see if the webcam shows up in your device manager. You can access that by right clicking on "Computer" in the start menu, and going to properties.

On the right of that new window, you should see a link for "Device Manager".

Scroll until you see "Imaging Devices", and verify that the camera is even showing up on your system. If it is, go to its properties and driver tab, and verify that it has drivers assigned to it.

If it does, test using the camera in your program of choice. If it is not working, my best advice is when windows searches for the software (where it said it couldnt find any), try to direct it to the directory on the installation CD that has the driver in it.

Please let me know if any of this didnt work to help fix your problem, and we can try something else. Good luck!

Software won't work with vista

Uninstall Windows Vista. Do a fresh install of Windows XP Professional Sp2. Download XP drivers and install camera. Many software programs have trouble initializing in Windows Vista. Good luck!
