cant get my webcam to work,keeps going off, when i type?

Answer 1

Are your web cam and keyboard USB?

Are they both plugged into a USB hub?

If they are the hub might not have enough power to supply both devices.

Try plugging each directly into a USB port on your computer, preferably one on the back. I have found that a lot of front mounted USB ports aren't powered.

If not then try different drivers.

Good luck!

Answer 2

Maybe it depends on the type of webcam or computer you are using. Mine is ok but I have a friend in Canada who has the same trouble. I will be interested to read your other answers.
Good question mate.
