    Go to Dell Webcam Center from start menu....U can record videos, click photos from there....

    If it says feature not support then click here , download and install Creative Labs Driver for Laptop Integrated Webcam

    I have the driver correctly installed (cuz i can use it in MSN messenger), the problem is i can't find "Dell Webcam Center" from the start. neither the directory where the program is installed..

    the only option available is: start -> Programas -> dell webcam -> Laptop Integrated webcam -> dell Webcam Console.

    i can do nothing there but the setting of the webcam :S

    www.tokbox.com is cool for webcam chat or webcam messages. No software install needed, just a browser with flash.

    The webcam program came on a seperate CD. It is not in the driver CD. You have to install it seperately.
