Hi Eee-Tee

Does the camera show up on your devices lists? What OS are you running? Which camera are you using?

Cheers

Hi,
I have JVC GR-DVP9 and worked fine on my XP laptop, but I couldn't make it work on Win2k. It wasn't detected.
I spent 2 weeks and discovered just last night that it works when I unplugged my network cable. I tried everything before, re-shuffled cards, re-installed software several times etc.
At the end I replaced network card and now it works fine.
Strange.
Network card and connection was working fine otherwise.
