Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.messenger (More info?)

Hi there.
I have had exactly the same problem except i am using a video camera that i
have installed and can see it in the tests and even through the yahoo tests
that i have done but for some reason when it comes to actually using it
properly it wont work.
Have you had any luck, please let me know, i am getting desperate!!!!
