Default "A video capture device was not detected"


Was having the same problem using IEEE 1394 with a Canon MV930 and
Vista. I knew that my camera worked with Vista as it has previously on a
laptop with Zoombrowser installed, but using Movie Maker (cant recall if
zoombrowser worked). when I recently upgraded to Vista on my own PC and
installed the Canon software, the camera could not be detected via
firewire (USB worked fine).
The solution was in the software upgrade. Using the the latest version
of Zoombroswer (ZoomBrowser EX Updater (6.3.1)) I could not dectect my
camera in Zoombroswer or Movie Maker. After hours of fustration I
uninstalled all the Canon software and then installed the first
Zoombrowser update compatable with Vista (ZoomBrowser EX Updater
(6.1.1a).
This resulted in my camera being detected by Vista and downloading via
Movie Maker. Zoombrowser is still not detecting my camera using
firewire, but this is acceptable as Movie Maker is adequate for now.
