Webcam driver needed - help!

Alan_Cross

I have a pretty basic Technika webcam as sold by Tesco.

On the base it says 'model H16 WC-01'. Now that I've switched to a new desktop PC running Windows 7 rather than Vista, it no longer seems to work.

Can anyone point me at a driver download for this situation, please?

Tried it but it doesn't seem to apply to this model.

Research in the Google. Model name of the webcam + driver.

As far as I can see, nothing turns up for Windows 7.

You may have done this already, but given it doesn't without this, I would unzip the file, and then before running setup.exe, try a right-click and change compatibility settings to an earlier version of Windows (eg. Vista) and then "Run As Administrator"

If Setup.exe extracts some files and an exe somewhere, then you may find where it's gone and possibly change compatibility on the exe as above and run *that*.

Something else which occurred to me... I wonder if the version of Vista you were running was 32-bit, but your Windows 7 install is 64-bit?

I get the impression this webcam is pretty old, so any drivers which exist may be 32-bit only and I suspect wouldn't work on a 64-bit operating system.
