Cam is not completing installation and setup

Try updating the drivers to your web cam device. If that does not work out try finding more information, if you find error numbers or error messages you can identify the problem a little better. If you are using the software that came pre-installed for the web cam you can also try to download a different program that is integrated for all different webcams, such as ManyCam.

I have found a link to the driver file for CAM IV. Click here for the download.

The download is a 16 MB zip file. Extract it contents on the desktop. There will be two files: CamIVxp.zip and driver updater. Delete driver updater and extract CamIVxp. Double click on Setup and wait for it to install the drivers. Connect your cam after the install completes.

If you are using Vista, and the setup does not run, try compatibility mode and remember that setup can only be run after the files are extracted and cannot be run from within the zip file.

Try to install first the driver of the cam which is in your cd/dvd driver. during the setup process, there's a step that ask you to connect the hardware which is a cam and then plug the cam and continue setup, after finishing installation, restart the computer then that's the time your cam recognized, then continue little remaining setup to finally complete the installation.

Insert the cd into CD rom and then double clcik on setup.exe file.
Run the setup.exe without attach your webcam and when software require to attach then you should attach the cam and do complete the installation.

Must take reboot if required.

Good Luck

Try copying the files on the disc to a folder and run them from there. Open the folder you saved the files in then double click the setup.exe icon and see if it completes the installation. If that does not work then try downloading the files from the radio shack web site.

If the Web cam was Generic, or even Brand name, and it came with a Drivers disc (this would mean that it is not plug and play), try completely uninstalling the Driver software for the web cam. After the uninstall has finished, reinstall the drivers, taking extra care to follow ALL on screen instructions to the T. If at some point there were other web cams, and the drivers that belonged to those cams installed on the computer, be sure to fully uninstall all of them. Only use the cam and the drivers that you are attempting to install. After all of that, the cam should work just fine.

If for some reason the cam does not work after reinstalling the drivers, try a different brand of web cam. The computer that the drivers are attempting to operate on may not be adequate to support those drivers. If that's the case, try a generic, cheaper web cam as I said.

Also: While powering up the cam, don't run anything unnecessary.

Hope this helps.

If you bought a new 1.3 mega web cam with that a driver cd is available. If you have the driver cd install it first. here is install steps.

1. unplug the web cam if you connected to the system
2. Put the web cam driver cd into the cd drive and install the driver software.
3. In the installation it will ask you to connect the web cam to the system and connect it (Only it ask to connect)
4. After that you can see the image on the web cam software.
5. Adjust the lens which is comfortable to see.

These are intial steps to work the web cam just try it and inform me if you get any other thing

Hi,

1. Download this file.
2. Unplug your camera from computer.
3. Extract the file using WinRAR.
4. Open the extracted files and launch setup.
5. Follow the on-screen instructions.
6. After installation is finished, plug-in your camera to the USB.
7. The device should be detected automatically.

Hope this answers your question.

since you have not given any model no for your ibm web cam, Its very difficult for anyone to tell which drivers to download

visit this link to scan for your web cam drivers:

installation:

• Make sure the IBM PC/Net Camera is unplugged from the computer before installing this software.
