WebCam Go and LifeBook Notebook running XP

Hello,
has anyone been able to start the old WebCam GO with the latest XP driver in a Fujitsu-Siemens Notebook?
Once i try to install the drive the very moment the driver wants to inialize the Camera I get an BlueScreen of Death from the System.
Unfortanly all the Bluescreen states is that the System has trouble with the driver bit not what kind of Problem.
Does any one know an alternative driver for this Camera I could try?
Greetings
Dirk

Sounds exactly like the problem I am getting (http://forums.creative.com/creativelabs/board/message?board.id=cameras&message.id=2738).
In that you can get a functional XP-capable webcam for about $5, my current thinking is to throw the WebCam Go away, and never, ever, buy Creative Labs products again.

Need to connect a web cam and external mike to my McBook Pro running snow leopard for a Skype session with another school. Attached an HP webcam (USB) and can't get video. Any suggestions?

You control the camera for Skype from within Skype, so Skype must be running to running to make video work.

HP Pavilion dv6 notebook crashed, and won't run properly anymore

A couple of days ago, my notebook froze, whilst I was listening to music, and everything switched to "Not Responding". The first two or three times it started to work again. But one time it just kept saying that, so I had to force shut down it. I run Windows 8 on it. When I restarted it, it went to the Windows 8 screen whilst loading, then a black screen. It remained on that screen for a while, so I force shut down the notebook again. When I restarted it, the notebooks automatically went into System Recovery, and attempted to fix system errors. It went to another black screen, and in some impatience, I force shut down the notebook again. I assume this may have resulted in the corruption of some system files. I restarted it again, but this time left it running overnight, again the notebook was trying to do a System Recovery. The next morning I came back to the notebook, and it was on the login screen. It took a very long time attempting to login, and I was in a rush to leave that morning, so force shut it down again. It worked, but very very slowly. It would take ages to even open My Documents. One problem that occurred sometimes was that when I restarted, it would say "boot device not found", and then a couple more force shut downs and start ups later it would find the hard drive. But it still ran really slowly. I realized that it wasn't just going to work like this, so attempted to copy all of my file onto an external hard drive. I left that running overnight, and when I came back in the morning, the notebook was again on the "boot device not found" screen. After that, it refused to do anything but show that same screen, so my cousin, who works in IT, booted Windows 7 onto it from a USB. He tried to work with getting the notebook running, and spent a whole day on it, it ran so slowly, but found that the system files had been corrupted. And there was no access to my hard drive because both the system files and my personal files were on one C: drive, rather than partitions. He spent the afternoon trying to use a file recovery software, and said it managed to get about 90% done, and the approximate file count he stated sounded similar to how many it stated it had found to copy, when I attempted to copy all of my files. So, I'm assuming it's possible to recover my files, though right now I have no access to them. I have no problem with restoring it to it's factory default settings, installing a new operating system, etc, but I really really need my files. I have spent way too much time collectively creating a massive database of various files, in two or so years of use, and it's very unsettling that I may have just lost everything. So, what the hell happened? And how do I fix it? Will I need to send my laptop to HP, because I have no problem in that either, it's of no use to me right now, anyways?

Hello Aeonica,
Welcome to the HP Forums.
I understand the computer is unable to detect a boot device and run properly. I will do my best to assist you.
To troubleshoot the issue, HP released a document on this hardware error. If you try these steps, you may be able to resolve the boot device error: Resolve Boot Device not Found Error Message
I believe these steps will resolve the issue. Unfortunately, the computer should be serviced if the issue is not resolved. To do this, please contact HP phone support. You can utilize this website to learn how to contact HP appropriately, based on your region: Contact HP Worldwide
Please let me know how it goes. Thanks!

No picture on integrated webcam in Mythos A15 notebook

I'm having a bit of trouble with my integrated webcam on my Mythos A15 notebook pc.
The webcam is recognized, and proper kernel modules are loaded, but i get no picture when testing my webcam with skype or try to capture a snapshot with mplayer.
When i try to test the webcam in Skype, it just shows a black screen, and i get the following output in terminal:
Skype V4L2: Could not find a suitable capture format
Skype V4L2: Could not find a suitable capture format
Starting the process...
Skype Xv: Xv ports available: 32
Skype XShm: XShm support enabled
Skype Xv: Using Xv port 280
Skype Xv: No suitable overlay format found
By running dmesg, I can see that my webcam is recognized.
dmesg | grep -i video
uvcvideo: Found UVC 1.00 device Sirius USB2.0 Camera (0ac8:3343)
input: Sirius USB2.0 Camera as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1a.7/usb1/1-3/1-3:1.0/input/input8
Have anyone else had a similar problem with their integrated webcam?
And is there anybody who might have a solution to this problem?

When i start the aMSN Audio and Video assistant, aMSN hangs for a while and the crashes, with the following being returned to the terminal:

My 2 notebooks running XP will no longer detect the BEFW11S4 WAP, what can I do?

My 2 notebooks running XP will no longer detect the BEFW11S4 WAP, what can I do?
The connections just stopped yesterday. Both laptops work OK when connected by ethernet cables and my main PC running XP64 connected also by ethernet is not affected.
Both laptops can see my neighbour's wireless network and worked OK with my son-in-laws network last night when I took them over to his house.
Can I assume that the "wireless component has died?
Any recommendations for a direct updated replacement?
I'm currently connected to NTL broadband but may at sometime switch to Sky broadband in the future but I understand that I would not be able to do this with my NTL phone line.

Thanks for the comments Charrie21,
SSID Broadcast is enabled,
Of the 3 leds on the front left:
WLAN ACT is not illuminated
WLAN Link is illuminated [According to the instruction because it is connected to a cable modem],
POWER is illuminated.
Of the 3 leds on the front right:
LINK is illuminated,
ACT is not illuminated,
Diag in not illuminated.
The router has been reset several times.
SSID has been changed several times
Channel number has been changed several times
WAP was previously 64BIt and has been changed to 128Bit
Firmware version is the same date as currently on the Linksys web sute for this model.
I am thinking the "wireless" component is dead.

Installed webcam nx and now no internet. HELP!

I just got my webcam nx and followed all the install instructions.
Installed the software and drivers, then plugged in the webcam and things seemed to work great. I then connected to the net (i have dial up) and tried to run msn messenger and it said no internet connection. But, my connection was working, as my windows auto-updates was loading. I opened a ie window and it said no interenet connection detected. I did a system restore and the interenet worked fine. I tried another install of the webcam software and same problem, no internet. Any ideas?
Thanks.

The problem seems to have been solved!
I did a couple of things, and don't know which one was the solution.
First, I ran Onyx (free download fm versiontracker) both cleaning, maintenance and automatic, with the standard options.
Then, I shut down and disconnected everything - computer, router and cable-modem.
Then, in this order, I plugged the computer in to router. Turned on router. Plugged the cable-modem into router. Turned on cable-modem. Plugged router into the computer and, finally, turned on the computer.
Lo' and behold - the net is back up!

Webcam Ultra live for notebooks not detected?

I recently tried to install my Webcam Ultra live for notebooks. I couldn't find the installation CD, so I downloaded the driver in accordance with Creative Labs email.

Unfortunately Snow Leopard removed many thrid party cam support. They keep working under Leopard and Tiger, though.
To get a cam working under 10.6 be sure it uses the UVC standard.
A good and safe choice is the Xbox Live Vision which works perfectly with 10.6.

Presario C554TU Notebook running XP - display resolution

ive got a Presario C554TU Notebook running XP, it came with vista originally but was running really badly, so a friend put on a XP copy and it runs great now.
Ive tried hooking the laptop to our tv, but cant get the laptop screen to fit into the tv as i only have 2 resolution options on the laptop. I was told to install the Intel 945GM video driver, but it wont install.
In my device manager ive got Mobile Intel(R) 945GM/GU Express Chipset Family with the yellow question mark next to it.
Anyone have any ideas how i can get this driver or more options for my resolution?
thanks

Hi:
First I would install the chipset driver from Intel and reboot

Then try the Intel graphics driver for your notebook:

I have a MacBook Pro (15-inch, Late 2008) and am currently running Snow Leopard 10.6.8. I would like to know which is the most stable upgrade for my model. I have read some reviews of Maverick and Yosemite making the older macs slower. Is this true?

I have a MacBook Pro (15-inch, Late 2008), Intel Core 2 Duo 2.53 GHz, 4GB Memory. and am currently running Snow Leopard 10.6.8.
I would like to know which is the most stable upgrade for my model? Mountain Lion, Mavericks or Yosemite?
When I had gone to the apple care centre in India a few months ago to upgrade my OSX to Mountain Lion, I was told that considering my macbook pro's specs, upgrading it would just make it less efficient, and that I should stick to Snow Leopard unless I consider buying a newer mac that would benefit from it. Is this true? I find it a bit hard to believe. Which update is most recommended?
I also notice that my mac has gotten considerably slower. While using chrome, it buffers and struggles with even just 5 tabs open. Could this have something to do with my current ios? As a precaution, I have always been making sure I have enough free space on disk i.e around 70 - 100 free out of 250GB.
Any advice is appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Mavericks is no longer available from the App Store, so your choice is Yosemite. One option is to create a new partition (~30- 50 GB), install the new OS, and ‘test drive’ it. If you like/don’t like it it, you can then remove the partition. Do a backup before you do anything. By doing this, if you don’t like it you won't have to go though the revert process.
Check to make sure your applications are compatible.

HT204291 Airplay mirroring. Macbook 2012 retina display. Unable to see desktop on television, audio works perfectly. Both OS on ATV and Mac are running latest versions

Airplay mirroring.
Macbook 2012 retina display. Unable to see desktop on television, audio works perfectly. Both OS on ATV and Mac are running latest versions.
Firewall set correctly (allow incoming...)
When I click mirroring to turn it on, teh Apple TV screen goes blank (from its home setting)
Any help appreciated.

Hi!
I figured it out! It was a firewall issue.
I use Handsoff and I checked it before i wrote here. There was no "user defined rule" that denied the communication but when i changed to "All rules" the program displayed several rules regarding AppleTV and its IP.
So if anybody has the same problem make sure you see all rules of your firewall and get rid of the AppleTV related rules generated by the program itself. You dont need to update to the latest iOS on the AppleTV!
I hope that I can help some people with this info to fix the problem.

HT1689 since doing the 7.0.4 update i notice that my mobile data has doubled and i am running out of data mid month. I've disabled apps s not many running. Any suggestions?

since doing the 7.0.4 update i notice that my mobile data has doubled and i am running out of data mid month. I've disabled apps s not many running. Any suggestions?

I am having the same issue even with the newer 7.1. I have a 1-100 KB data push on both my husdand's and my phone every hour on the hour (i.e. my will be at :23 of the hour and his will be at :13 of the hour and it will change). This is whether we are on a WIFI and with all apps, background refreshes, push notifications, etc turned OFF.

I have a new Macbook pro, about 2 months old, and at times running video, the fans starts and does not stop. how do you get it to stop.

I have a new Macbookbook, about 2 months old, and at times running video, the fans starts and does not stop. how do you get it to stop. Also i am thinking once the video is done the fan should be slowing down and getting quiet on its own.

Your fan(s) will run at high speed (i.e., loudly) while video is playing, and you can't get around that.
If your fans are not slowing down within 2-4 minutes after CPU- and/or GPU-intensive usage ends, and the application that was showing the video is still running, Quit that application. (In fact, if you're accustomed to Windows, you may not realize that simply closing a Mac application's window does not quit the application. You still need to use the Quit command in the application-name menu. There will always be a bright dot beside or below the application icon in your Dock for each application that is open.) Quit the ones you aren't using, and see whether that allows the fans to slow down without restarting the machine. If that doesn't do the trick, reset the SMC:
