webcam won't work with xp

[franklin97355]

I have an Intel CS330 webcam that I can't get to work reliably with xp. I've downloaded the latest drivers and reinstalled them. When I plug the camera in xp finds new hardware and sets it up but if I go to an application the picture I get is the picture that was taken when I plugged the camera in and no live video or additional pictures can be taken.

I've had the same problem with a logitech webcam. It's a problem the the USB controller and Windows XP. My viedo was very choppy and the camera would lock up after about 5 sec. Try and find updated drivers/ or BIOS for your desktop. And see if that fixes he issue.
