Hi, thank you in advance for your advice.
I have a LifeCam VX-1000 of which I followed the instructions to a "T" when
installing it via the software, installing it on Windows Vista (including
only plugging in the USB connection when the software asked for it).
Whenever I turn my machine back on (after being shut down properly for the
night) I will receive a request to add the new hardware. Except, when I go
through and try and install it via the Windows Update option it shows no
drivers for the Microsoft webcam, which is a cack. But that's not the
problem - how on Earth can I get the LifeCam VX-1000 drivers to "stick" so
that I don't have to continually reinstall the software and unplug and replug
in the damn thing? It's supposed to be Vista compatible. Graar.
Other experiences with similar circumstances - but different hardware:
1. I had a similar problem with my top quality HP printer which ended up
needing a change of setting for the Service for that particular piece of
hardware. This hardware was utilising a connection over my wireless network
though - not my USB ports.
2. I have a similar problem with my USB head phones, too - whenever I
reboot the damn things don't work anymore and instead "scream" in my ear if
you know what I mean. I have to unplug and replug into the USB port (I have
tried several ports, all with the same outcome). The USB ports work for
other items.
