Spy net snake cam wont work on my computer(running windows 7) as a web cam help

you need to re install the software driver for the camera.the software is available at the net just type the model no of your laptop and ask for the web cam driver good luck!

It could be that the drivers for this device, are not compatible with Windows 7. Try driversguide.com or drivershq.com for updated drivers. Other than that, you should find a friend running windows XP, and try download video to that.
Hope this helps.

Your description is kind of confusing. are you running windows xp or windows 7? Your best bet would be to download the drivers and software for windows 7 from the camera's manufacturer website.

Ms Mason,

With Windows 7 there comes an improved Compatibility feature which allows you to run programs apparently not functional in Windows 7. In order to do this, please install the program as usual, making sure to tell the installation program to install a desktop icon. When it is finished, right click on the icon and select properties. The next window has a tab called compatibility. Click this tab and select Run program in... and select Windows Vista or Windows XP SP3 (either should work). I would also set it to run as administrator. See graphic below.


If the program wont install at all, than explore the CD and do the same process with the "setup.exe" program on the CD.

Good Luck,

I'm having this same problem. Any help would be great. I've even disabled automatic driver installation, and tried pointing the "update driver" to where the driver executive is, but it still wont work.

download it from here:

Hi,

Your cam has the old driver and does not work with window 7 check with the manf. to see if they have an updated drive for it or you can try the universaal driver in window...hope that help.

download spybot search and destroy and run this plus download and install avg 8 it's free and run both programs offline meaning not connected to the net and once done you may try and run spy-sweeper again.

If all fails try another copy from web it may have come down corrupted.

If all is well then happy surfing but if the new copy is the same then hunt in the registry for all keys belonging to spy sweeper once you have removed it from your computer also go-to program files directory and find the folder that belongs to spy sweeper and delete folder as most of un-installers don't remove the folder to program and try installing again and if all fails then then other thing I can suggest is move all your files to a safe place and redo your operating system from scratch but after you have installed os, install spy sweeper first then any other security software before you go to net.

hope this is helpful
