Many thanks. Uninstall the camera drivers/software. Reboot. Install the camer drivers/software. Update it as needed. Make sure you only have one thing accessing it at a time (Instant Messenger, Skype, etc.) -- Shenan Stanley MS-MVP -- How To Ask Questions The Smart Way http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
