Hi Dave,Would you happen to know which driver for a 6 LED USB 2.0 JPEG Webcam is compatible to use in Windows 7?I have tried all the driver listed below:KS-1211NightvisionCam350KNVAUSB168WCM-6lnv-6ledWCM-6lnvWCM-NVAZS211ZS211x64-bitBut unfortunately none of them works.First, I changed the compatibility to vista then install the driver, if the device could not be detected, then i go to device management and tried doing a manual installation but still unsuccessful.I really need your expertise. Do you have the correct driver for that cam?by that i mean do you have the install disk that came with it?if not take the back of the thing and look at its chipsetwhen i know what chipset is being used i can see if i can think of a way to get it working under windows 7.now windows 7 is nothing more then vista renamed with a bit added here and little taken away there, if you have ever had your cam working with vista the chances are it will work under windows 7.oh and what version of windows 7 are you running 32bit or 64. The driver is for 32 bit versions of windows and its the only driver i know of.what i just done is strip the driver to its bare files, no amcap program no nothing just the bare files needed by windows to use this cam.if you download the zipfile on the bottom of this post then fully unpack it.go in to programs and remove the full alcorcam program.restart windows,plug the cam in to another usb port so windows starts the new hardware wizard, this time don't let it search. Tell it you will choose what driver to install, browse to the unpacked driver fileshighlight the cam1690 system file and click next.please make sure all the time your doing this that your firewall and anti-virus are shut down or they will block what your trying to do.Attached Files(Size: 1.46 MB / Downloads: 590). Also got a cheapo webcam off ebay. Unfortunately won't work, hardware id string is USBVID17A1&PID0128. Have searched and got many hits but no solutions until I came across this thread.
I am using windows 7 Home 64bit version. Followed instructions for the bare files option. For the first time windows said it found the driver but then it cam up with an error at the end. The error being that it was not meant for this platform, the driver finished installing 'generic 1.0.2.0'- but cam still won't work and under the status tab it says:This device is not configured correctly.
(Code 1)Driver is not intended for this platformAny help appreciated.CheersBarney. Now you have that driver installed try doing the following.shut down any firewall and anti-virus you may be running.make sure the pc has access to the net, no need for your browser to be open just be online.go in to device manager.right click on the problem cam and select update driver.when asked allow windows to search online for any possible drivers in the microsoft database.i know this cam has been out a while now so microsoft must have got that id string reported thousands of times in reports from windows debugging tools.
