Camera Assistant Softwar for Toshiba Not Working
posted by thaowy on Jan 02, 2008
Just bought a
Satellite A200
Part Number - PSAF6A-07G01N
Satellite A200, Intel Core 2 Duo T7250
and after a few captures the camera is no longer loading via the taskbar, side toolbar or selection from start -> Camera Assistant Software. Prior to that everytime i loaded the camera it said it was locked by another application (don't know which one).
Now it won't load at all.. Help!

i have bought this Toshiba laptop few days ago and had had the same issue.. i think the problem is with the software.. now what i do is i start the camera... if it gives me black screen i press f5 and then again click the snap shot button.. this works..
the same i do with the video. when it shows locked by another application .. i press f5 and then start it again.. in my case it works..
(i also tried) when it doesn't work i press the default option and it starts to work..
in my case f5/default both works(USE ONE)... but still if there is any remedy for life time that would be a real lifesaver..
