Hey guys. A friend of mine has a webcam which she uses to talk to her husband while he's working in America. The problem is that recentley she cannot use the camera in msn, as the program says the camera is already in use somewhere else.

In the settings tab, the camera is selected, and I can even see the preview image for settings so the camera is still working. Anyone know anything about this?

use camfrog much better than any other webcam chat programme. Maybe someone with the cash could set up a SheffieldForum room.

It is free btw but you do have to pay for the pro version which is'nt really that different.

It's a fairly decent Phillips one, don't know the exact model. XP, USB interface.

I've updated the drivers and reinstalled MSN, none of which work.

I bought a Phillips webcam to use with MSN, ended up taking it back and getting a Logitech webcam because I was fed of all the conflicts I was getting with the Phillips one.
