Greetings Nick,

Have you gone through the Audio and Video Tuning wizard? If not, open up the main Messenger
window, click the Tools menu, then Audio Tuning Wizard and go through the wizard to choose
and test your video camera.

I have this same problem with the same cam... There is NO problem with the
cam... it works in all other video applications... INCLUDING EyeBall chat...
it will not work in MSN Messenger 6.0
When I use the Audio/Video Tuning Wizard, it says Camera Error... the camera
is either not working properly or is in use by another program... WRONG...
It simply will not work with ONLY MSN Messenger !!

A fix would be greatly appreciated...

Thanx

KPB

try running amcap before attempting a VC if you are having problems. It
seems to initialise the camera and audio properly ready for messenger.

Hi KPB,

Contrary to popular belief, a webcam is not a webcam, there are differences that can cause
this to happen.

What type of camera is it?
