SP2008WFP Webcam and Skype
Has anyone gotten these to work together? I only get a black screen where the video should be. Microphone works fine and the video works under the dell software as well as MSN Messenger and Yahoo Messenger.
I am running Vista Business and the new Skype beta version 3.6.0.127 The current official release of Skype also has the same problem.
Any help would be appreciated.

Another suggestion.So we know for sure your hardware (dell display webcam) is working, because it work on MSN and Yahoo messanger.Dell webcam driver according to you is not working with SKYPE.Let's do experiment with Microsoft default webcam driver with skype.The way to do this is to uninstall the dell webcam driver.Below is the list of driver you need to uninstall (You can reinstall them later with the disc that dell provided)- Avanced audio fx engine- Advanced video fx engine- Dell Webcam Center- Dell Webcam Manager- Live! Cam Avatar Creator- Live! Cam Avatar v1.0- Monitor integrated Webcam Driver (1.00.13.0608)Let me know if it works.Thanks722

rick5302,
Let it load. Remove Skype. Reboot the PC. Reinstall Skype and check it.
