Vx6000 microsoft webcam, drivers?

I have a vx6000 microsoft lifecam webcam. I installed all the software and that's working on my windows XP service pack 2. But when I plug in the webcam it displays the error message 'there is no camera connected to this computer'. So I went on device manager and it had a yellow question mark displayed with an exclamation mark over the top, with USB20 camera. I tried to update the driver but it says I need an installation disk which I don't have and the message appears as follow 'The drivers for this device are not installed. (Code 28)'. Does anyone know what this means and what I have to do to get the webcam to work? I downloaded the driver detective and downloaded the drivers for the webcam however they won't update and it still says 'there is no driver for this device'. Does anyone know how to get the webcam to work and be picked up?
Thanks

How to install microsoft lifecam VX6000 w/o cd rom.need help! pls

Visit the Microsoft hardware support page and fill in the details of your webcam and OS to navigate to the support page for your model.
Before downloading software take time to look at the 'readme' link which will give you lots of information and any current or breaking issues

That file is 46.3mb. On dial-up you are looking at a minimum of 8hrs. If you are on dsl with a decent speed it should have already been finished.

Help me please

Click Here Once You Pull That Up It Will Give You All The Downloads You Need Just Enter Webcam Under The First option, lifecam vx6000
Under The Second Option And Your Operating System Like Windows Xp Or Vista, Then Enter Your Language. Then Click Go It Will Bring You To A Download Of The Software Just Download It And Install It.
Make Sure The Webcam Is Unplugged When You Install The Hardware Then Reboot Your Computer After Its Fully Installed And Once You Reach Your Desktop On Start Up Plug In The Camera.
You Should Be Good To Go.
