MSN and webcam probs

Jolaaled

Hope someone can help:

When i try to send my webcam to my online msn messenger contacts, my webcam stops working... it seems to happen as soon as the contact tries to 'accept' in invitation to view.

Anyone got any clues to help??

thanks

did it work prior to now?

do you have the latest version of msn? (if not you can download)

do you have the latest drivers of the webcam? (if not you can download)

does the camera work without msn?

what version of Windows (if windows of course) are you using?

lots of questions but all part of the fault finding.

thanks for your suggestions.
I've now discovered that it does work for some of my msn contacts, but not for others.
I'm completely stumped.
thanks for the ideas tho.

I agree, MSN voice & video is rather wobbly when used on different versions of Windows, I gave up using it and switched to Skype.
