Having found the manufacture 'Lifeview' has no driver for there 'USB Robo Cam' that will run on Windows XP. Dose any one know if ther is a driver by another make that is compatable to this product that will work on XP

none of the generic XP drivers worked??

you could see if the NT or win2000 drivers are available and give therm a go.

Dont go there unless you want a real headake XP dose not like any old drivers it would seem ?

OK, check out this (http://www.3dlinks.com/spectrum/issues/spectrum-nov-01-99.cfm)link (about a third of the way down the page is the info on Lifeview) I snatched from a Google search and use the telephone number if you haven't already done that...good luck.

I think this is the major concern I am hearing now since the release of XP...prior to release it was anticipated activation headaches, but since the release I personally know peeps and see this posted a lot elsewhere that their apps won't work with XP or there is missing driver support from software manufacturers/vendors http://www.PCGuide.com/ubb/frown.gif

I may be wrong on this - but I'm sure I saw a post on this forum relating to drivers that do already exist on XP but that the OS needs to be tweaked in some way for them all to show-up. The PCGuide Search is not working for me right now or I might have found it.

Can anyone confirm this - or am I more deluded than usual?? http://www.PCGuide.com/ubb/eek.gif

Thanx again for trying to help, I have been down this avenue, trying to e-mail Lifeview is a trial in its self as the mail is always returned. However I have spoken to the UK supplyer and await a report from them. I am now getting lots of reports that this is a big problem with XP as you have found. Regards Bob any colour you like as long as its PINK.

Hi Paul and thanx for taking the trouble to reply to my problem The opperating system theory is interesting you must tell me if you get anywhere with it

R D Shotter I must have had a rush to the head coz I cant now find what I alluded to previously. http://www.PCGuide.com/ubb/mad.gif I am truly pretty deluded at the moment due to a bad dose of shingles. I am sure you have already been to Lifeview Downloads (http://www.lifeview.com/Service/Download/download.html). Since it is the same download there for 98,ME and 2000 I would be tempted to try it out - but then I have no experience of XP at all - and I love getting my fingers burned!! http://www.PCGuide.com/ubb/biggrin.gif

BTW what happens when you plug in the USB and as sea69 suggested is there any option of trying a generic Video Capture? Good Luck neways and let us know if you solve the problem.
