your machine via another USB socket.

snapping course options or have the color settings related set as
default
Question5: Blank screen or black screen

pops up, the Blank screen or black screen will occur?
Method 1: Make sure that the ViewCam driver is installed fine.
Method 2: Ensure the Preview" under Option" tab is selectedand applied.

you need to update the OS to WIN98 SE or above or download
DirectX8.0 or version above patch application from site then
reset your computer.
Question 6: Bloom screen occurs during the course of
usage
Method 1: Check if USB power is clean, because the

then such problem will occur. You may use another computer

Method 3: Check the ViewCam driver and match it with
ViewCam model; in addition also use other video cards to
confirm if the current video card and its driver are incompatible
with ViewCam.
Question 7 The ViewCam cant work normally under thelaptop/notebook

define and double-click A4tech.port View Cam ". After
opened a window, please check the tab "resource to find the
conflict information. If it is conflicted with other video card, you
should try to change an IRQ of them.
Question 8Remote video isnt smooth as expectedThis issue is caused by two reasons:
The actual net band with is not enough and you are suggested
to modify the conference properties to decrease the video
occupying bandwidth or to reduce the contemporaneous
windows numbers
2) Please check the computer CPU space occupying rate and
if it is too high then please decrease it to reduce the

contemporaneous windows numbers.
Question 9How come I couldnt hear any sound via MSNMessenger even after the successful installation of the
driver?
1. Maybe the micro voice is not enable, so please click the
voice icon in the system tray at the right bottom of computer
screen to check if the micro voice is enable, if not, please enable
it in the control volume.
2. Sometimes, the MSN messenger is too old to support both
sound card and your ViewCam, so please upgrade your MSNmessenger to support your ViewCam and sound card.
Question 10: How come the system always asks me to
install the driver while I have successfully installed?
A: Because you have plugged the ViewCam before installation.
