    Tried searching a couple of different ways and can't find what I'm looking for...bought my wife the PCMW "Fusion", which I believe is a 2092?, and it has the camera thing on it. What program(s) do folks use this with? I'd like to get her set up so she could use it while talking to her mom or our daughters over the internet. I'd appreciate it if someone could point in the direction of some tutorials/sites/how-tos on using this...thanks, bill

    p.s. I believe my daughter has the same type of camera on her Dell 1530 so a program they could both use would be great.

    You might ned t activate it by pressing some key combination like Fn+10 to activate cam.Skype is good in this regard.

    If the driver is installed it should appear under My Computer as a USB Video Device. One way to use it is by going into Run and typing in "amcap". Also, even though it didn't come bundled with any application, it will work with an video conference program. And I also agree with using Skype.
