Default Sound in slow motion - 02-21-2007 , 10:54 AM






I have a WinXP x64 and I bought this little camera a couple o' days
ago and went straight home to install it.

Mid-way through the installation it gives me this error message saying
that it doesn't work with 64-bit. Fine.

I got to the Logitech website, and downloaded a WinXP x64 driver
(about 80MB or so).

Installed it, everything seemed o.k. but wait... what happened to the
sound? All the sounds of my computer (including shut down and start-
up) sound blurry. I've tried playing an audio file in various players
and the sound sounds in slow motion. Very strange.

Eventually, I uninstalled the driver completely, and installed it
again but this time - I chose only to install drives (and not the
entire software). And where does it all get me?

I now have a webcam that works, but I have none of the cool features
of the pro 5000 (face tracking, avatar etc.).

Does anyone, anyone have an idea what this problem is all about?

I'm at a loss here. Please help.

Thanks,

Joe R.

The problem is with the driver *AND* cam. Basically put, you've got a
webcam which your system isn't capable of handling. This is indicative of
many older computers that you would typically find either in a used computer
shop or online on eBay somewhere.

Do you have another webcam you can compare with?

Hope this helps

Do you even know what XP64 is?
The correct answer would be to request that Logitech release
a 64 bit version of their software.
