Did you plug it into the same usb slot some reason my computer recognizes it as a new device if i put it in a different one.

Have you looked at the installation guide? www.unitedpepper.org.uk/vars/Install.pdf when it comes up saying its found new hardware go to advanced and selected the disc for the dirvers.

Have you tried the driver from their website (link)?

Make sure to uninstall the old driver first, then run the program, then plug the webcam in when the programs either asks you to or finishes.

If it doesn't work on another computer, then I'd chuck it.

Also... have you restarted your computer? Worth a punt... sometimes gives the thing the kick up the @r$e it needs...
