Some webcams and programs require additional software, although that should be installed with the webcam if things are right.

But is does not harm to check if your Java, Flash and Quicktime software are installed and up to date.
But certainly check your DirectX software, since all video applications, including webcams, use DirectX for video processing.

Try downloading the latest DirectX version and install it (Windows XP: DirectX 9.0c - Windows Vista: DirectX 10).

is your Microsoft lifecamvx-2000 compatible with vista. Vista has many issues with it.

which Operative system do you use ??? XP, Vista, windows 7 ???

bee sure you use the right driver / software to the operative system. Then you have to go to the settings to the web cam, if you want to use it with a software and select the web cam (video settings).

the driver is here

please rate my answer

Very likely you have a defective webcam and need to return it. Before you do so verify it at the free webcam test site. If you can't see yourself there then the webcam is defective.

The DS-3000 and the software is was shipped will not operate with Windows Vista. The software i suspect you have will DSS Player Pro Release 2 or 3. If you obtain a copy of DSS Player Pro Release 4 you will be able to use the DS-3000 on Windows Vista 32 bit or 64 bit without problem.

maybe the OS on that hp lap is Vista:
