Microsoft webcam installation

Last response: in Computer Peripherals
Share

I've purchased Microsoft Webcam to run on my Windows XP. After I install and then turn off the computer, when I switch on I get the message "New hardware detected", along with the installation Wizard. If I then open Microsoft Lifecam, I am told to plug my device into a USB port...which it already is plugged into. Sometimes when I unplug the camera and then plug it back in, it works ok. Sometimes it doesn't.

I have tried unplugging the Webcam, uninstalling the software, reinstalling it, then pluggin Webcam back in. Does not help.

What am I doing wrong?
