The problem that I am still struggling is the webcam drivers. I have tried a few but just could not get it to work? anyone experts or guys out there faces the same problem like me? can u please help? :confused:

    I did managed to install XP on the G1S also, but there's no drivers for the webcam I could find.

    It is detected by windows under My Computer has a USB Video Device, you can use it, but the problem I am facing, is that the image is upside-down. LOL

    So I am looking for a software that could reverse the camera image.

    I finally got this working on XP and the driver was located on the ASUS G1S Vista Support CD all along!!

    On the support CD, run the following exe:

    <CD>/CAMERA/D-MAX/2KSETUP.exe (or something like that) :)

    Following the prompts to install, restart your laptop and then hit Fn - v to start LifeFrame and no more upside down image!!

    I can confirm the webcam also works in Skype!!

    Happy webcam'in!
