Videoconferencing with Microsoft NetMeeting
Microsoft NetMeeting 3.01 has been included with your camera to provide
videoconferencing capabilities. As one of the most widely distributed and
versatile videoconferencing applications on the market, you will be able to
communicate with anyone in the world as long as all parties are connected
through Microsoft NetMeeting. As a result of its large distribution base, you
will find that most owners of a pc camera will already have some exposure to
the software and probably own a copy.
Although this is an excellent program to become acquainted with, it can be
rather complicated the first time you set up a conference. To ensure that you
obtain the most from your camera experience, we have compiled this brief
instruction guide to help you get started.
However, since this is a Microsoft program we cannot offer any support
for this product beyond what is outlined in this guide. To obtain addi-
tional assistance with Microsoft NetMeeting, directly from Microsoft,
please refer to the NetMeeting web site at: http://www.microsoft.com/

Problem: Windows doesn’t detect the camera when you plug it into the
USB port.
Solution: When you plug in the camera after installing the drivers and
software, Windows will detect the camera and begin installing the drivers
for the IBM PC Camera. If you are getting no response from Windows
when you plug the camera in, this can be a sign that your USB port is not
configured properly, disabled, or has malfunctioned. If your motherboard
requires a cable to connect the USB port, make sure that it is plugged in
correctly. If you are unsure of the proper configuration, please contact your
system or motherboard manufacturer. If your USB controller is not listed in
the Device Manager, enable it in your system BIOS. Try using the camera
on another system to verify that the camera is working properly.
Problem: “Digital Video PC Camera is not connected to this computer”
Solution: The camera may not be plugged into the computer or may
have a driver conflict. Make sure the camera is snugly plugged into the
USB slot on your computer, then try the camera software again.
If this doesn’t help, click on Start->Settings->Control Panel->System-
>Device Manager and check to see if you have a Universal Serial Bus
Controller category. Under this category should have a USB Host
Controller and a USB Root Hub.
If you do not have this category, please contact your computer manufac-
turer for assistance on enabling your USB ports. If you do have this
category, check for another category in the Device Manager named
Imaging Device. Under this category should be the IBM PC Camera.
If the IBM PC Camera has a yellow “!” or red “X” next to it, this means it
may have a problem with the software driver. Double-click on the IBM
