    Hello, Vista recognizes the camera is there and installs a driver (I cant quite remember If I used the XP driver)...

    Anywho, theres no other driver for the orbi cam and I cannot get it to work in Vista using any software I find. Its also not on "computer".

    Anyone have a work around?

    i installed vista, then didn't install any drivers from XP. go to windows update, and get the driver from there. if you installed the one of xp, probably something gone bad, try to do a restore..

    So your saying your orbicam works on vista?

    What version of quickcam are you using and where'd you download it? Does it appear on "computer" for you?
