Re: LifeCam vx-7000 and Microsoft Office Communicator 2005
Hi Bobby Johnson
This is not my personal computer problem. This is a big problem for the
company that I am working for. We have more than 100 computer that are using
64 bit system. The Office communicator 2005 is working fine. We are using
Office communicator 2005 for meetings. Last week this company bought a lot
of this Lifecam VX=7000 . On the box we can see the text: compatible with
communicator 2005. But it is not. I tested in 5 computer that are using 64
bit system. It si not working with vista 64 bit.
Also it si working with vista 32 bit. This is not a good deal for us.
We are going to return all of them back. But this one is not a solution.
That’s way I am asking, Did somebody has the same problem, How did he fix it.
Also, if you read about this cam on the net, the review are not so good.
Go and read about LifeCam VX-7000. The another people are not happy about it.
This cam cost 100 $. Yes. It is true is not a lot of money, but when you buy
a lot of those camera for the company, this is a big impact for this company.
