LifeCam application crashes on Vista RTM

[Guest]

I just installed the new Vista drivers and application for my VX-6000 from
the hardware site and while the drivers install fine and the camera seems to
work (tried it with Messenger), when I launch the application (LifeCam.exe),
I get the following error message: "LifeCam.exe has stopped working"

I uninstalled and reinstalled 3 times, installed with the camera unplugged,
installed with it plugged in, rebooted etc. etc. No luck.

Is there anything I can check here?

Have you tried these drivers below?
I have the same camera but Vista Ultimate -
and it works fine for me, although the quality of picture and utilities
are
inferior to Logitech Webcam Orbit for Win XP . Unfortunately that are no
drivers from Logitech for this Webcam.

Thanks for the response JDR. Yes, I'm using the "RTM" drivers posted to the
/hardware site. That's what's so frustrating!

Paulp,

I'm experiencing the same problem with the "RTM" version of Ultimate and the
"RTM" software for my LifeCam 3000. The camera and microphone work fine with
Messenger, it's when you try to run the LifeCam software the application
stops working and needs to be closed. Frustrating indeed! I'll let you know
if I find anything out.

Hi,

Same case here. I'm using RTM version of Vista Enterprise and Vista
Drivers and Applicaiton for VX-6000. The camera works fine with
Windows Live Messenger, but when I try to open LifeCam application I
get the error message: "lifecam has stopped working".

Ultimate RTM. Installed fine and ran fine.

for Vista KB925528 from here:

Hello I finally know where the problem come from:
If you have nero software, just uninstall it and the problem solve.
You should download the last nero and see if the problem persist with the
new nero reloaded???

I uninstalled Nero and it didn't help.

I updated my Nero 7 Ultra Edition software today to the latest release and it
corrected the lifecam crashing issue and a Windows Host Process (rundll32)
error when accessing the Dreamscene preview. Hope it helps!

 

[Guest]

Same here. I installed version 7.7.5.1 and it fixed the crashing issue with
LifeCam. I wonder if uninstalling didn't remove everything . . .

 

[Guest]

Yes It's the same for me LifeCaml VX3000 and WISTA Basic

Error Message "LifeCam.exe Stop Running"

Y uninstall NERO as you said,

Then LifeCam is running OK

Thank You
