kombolcha Posted June 17, 2003 Share Posted June 17, 2003 i really need the drivers for this webcam... i lost the CD and i can't find the drivers on creative's website. if somone still uses this webcam, pleaes let me know so that i can get the drivers for it. i will also take win98 drivers as well, it should work thanks. i did download 98 drivers and extracted it to the sys32 folder... but the hardware wizard says its a "VLSI Vision LTD PPC2 Camera" i can't find drivers for that.

etron Posted June 20, 2003 Share Posted June 20, 2003 http://www.vvl.co.uk/tech_support/software...solete/home.htm PPC2 stands for Parallel Port Camera 2, which is the creative labs webcam II (there is an usb version too), so download the right driver from that site, it should work. In case it doesn't, here are a few more links (not sure what model you got) http://download.com.com/3000-2108-909425.html?tag=list (usb) http://download.com.com/3000-2108-903805.h...tml?tag=lst-0-2 (parallel) http://download.com.com/3000-2110-1512959....tml?tag=lst-0-4 (not sure) let me know if it worked, good luck Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/86239-still-use-creative-webcam-ii/#findComment-970257 Share on other sites More sharing options...

etron Posted July 20, 2003 Share Posted July 20, 2003 hey, go to http://www.americas.creative.com/support/w....asp?centric=38 select "Download DRIVERS" in the menu on the right hand side, once you click that, it will ask you which OS you have. Good luck. They also have the software online, hopefully the installation will go more smoothly. Let me know if you are still having problems.

etron Posted July 20, 2003 Share Posted July 20, 2003 time to contact Creative Support ;) That's a big mess. Did you make sure you followed the installation directions? I wouldn't be surprised if you have to do certain unusual steps in order to get a parallel port camera to work correctly.

kombolcha Posted July 27, 2003 Author Share Posted July 27, 2003 i contacted creative and man they suck.. probably worse than sony tech support :crazy: it took the guy like 10 mins to explain to me that they no longer support it and that he can't do anything about it. :angry: so i just bought a logitech webcam. life is good again.
