My webcam software isn't compatible with Windows XP. I got the camera like 2 years ago, it's a 3com and it has great picture quality for a webcam. Well those cocksuckers at 3com decided not to make any updates for my webcam so I've been without one for about a year or so now. Is there a way I can download an alternate driver for the webcam or trick windows into thinking it's a different camera?

Try telling xp to look for drivers via the windows.com site not by a cd or floppy

try a visit to windowsupdate.microsoft.com and see if there are any driver updates relating to your webcam

never really understood the point of having webcams..its kinda hard i mean youre at home relaxing..chatting up and posting spam on TA, in yer boxers, bra and who knows what else. but with a webcam you gotta look at decent and cant even pick yer nose if it itches.
