Ingo Posted May 7, 2005 Share Posted May 7, 2005 (edited) -PROBLEM SOLVED- Hello, I have a Philips ToUcam PRO II (PCVC840K) (webcam) This is what happens in "My Computer" As you see nothing happens, just a blank empty screen. I have been trying to reinstall, but without succes. In other applications that support twain sources, for example photoshop there's no problems at all. :( I use WinXP SP2. Thanks in advance!

TheWahbinator Posted May 7, 2005 Share Posted May 7, 2005 It's a webcam. Normally a regular camera would have pictures stored there, but Windows XP detects it like that no matter what. Just start recording using whatever program you want to export it to. Welcome to Neowin. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
