It is an alternative. And it COULD have fixed his problem. People don't have to act like jerks. Happy Thanksgiving!

plug it in and download sisoft sandra or whatever its called.
install and then run the program, go to the ports applet and look for where you plugged it in on your system. in there it should give you the manufacturer's information. i had to do this a few days ago cos i couldn't remember how to spell the manufacturer of my webcam

Are you trying to use it in MSN or something?
Do the MSN audio/video setup and it will recognize it on it's own

otherwise google any numbers on the back of the camera to find out who made it

that driver didnt work also

does it work after going through to msn webcam/mic setup wizard?

if it does then there's nothing wrong with your webcam, there's something wrong with your googling abilities

are there any numbers on the webcam at all?
GOOGLE THEM!
