Crashes Windows XP
I installed this webcam with the latest software (version 11.5) and found that it periodically crashed my PC. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the software a couple of times since following instructions received from Logitech support but to no avail. They are now suggesting I install an older version of the software (v11.1). I am inclined to give it up as a bad job.
Great Deskware - Completely Useless As A Webcam
The hardware is fairly average for a Chinese made product, acceptable but not great. The driver software is however, complete dross. It is an absolute dog to use and simply not fit for purpose (at least that is the case with Windows XP).
It has been installed several times, but even with the latest drivers (10/2007) it stops working after five minutes claiming that the 'webcam is in use by another application' - which it's not. It was bought for web conferences and two of my colleagues who also bought this product have experienced the same issues. To summarise, buy something else.
NO HEADSET SUPPLIED + Paid return postage too !!
Received this item and found on opening that it does not come with a headset as described which was the reason why we purchased it as a present. Have just returned it to Pixmania/Amazon as required and have had to pay £2.38 for the post service which I want refunded. Back to John Lewis or PC World now!!
