Hi Tracy. The camera is built into the laptop which is an XP Acer Travelmate 7510. The other laptop is a Win 7 ZooStorm Fizzbook Spin. The only software I can see is from MyComputer for USB Video Device but no option to disconnect
I disabled the camera in Device Manager just to make sure and the caption changed to unable to connect so definitely using the right drivers. Thanks for running the software, it's got to be a setup thing then. I'll borrow a webcam tomorrow just to check that and report back.

There is a service running that determines when the ArcSoft monitor software closes another ArcSoft product will regain the capture of the webcam. I started the Monitor, selected to Disconnect from the webcam. Now I'm getting a preview in VFP again. Do you have multiple webcam devices appearing in the device manager?
