Microsoft Lifecam VX-3000-unknown video error on Skype

Go Here; http://www.microsoft.com/hardware/downloads/default.mspx and download your drivers by searching the name of your webcam. Then install that software. When the instal is done, it will ask you to plug your Webcam in. It should then work. Then open up skype and choose Audio and Video Setup under tools or options. It will walk you through the steps in Skype to get it working.

I believe that this camera is NOT supported by Skype.

If you are using Skype and Intel, the problem is widely known and you need to update the Intel driver

Check out The Version Of Web Cam driver You Have Installed.... If You don't Have Installed Then What are you Looking For..... buy a Driver CD and Install It

Try restore, go back to a restore point before the date that you camera stopped working.
Hope this helps.
