Hit or miss.......2007-06-03

Unfortunately, I am one of those who are unable to get this camera to work properly. It seems that if you have an HP or Toshiba notebook, this will never work and it is useless to contact Creative for driver updates or for any help. Just return it or buy a different webcam. Also one poster said it may be due to the ATI chipset which both of my computers have so this may be true.

For those that did have it installed correctly, congrats. Now, I have to buy a new webcam. I've had success with Logitech products in the past so that's what I will get next time.

bad product, bad service, please don't waste your time and money!.......2007-05-29

this is a bad product at best. i have successfully and happily used a creative webcam in the past, but this one is beyond disappointing. i bought it for my 17 inch toshiba satellite notebook and after a couple of sketchy hangups i got the drivers installed. but upon connecting the camera, all i ever could get was a "usb device not recognised" error message. i went through all the hoops i could think of (and then some) but it didn't change a thing.
then a google took me straight to creative technologies OWN website message boards and i found out i was not by any means the only one experiencing this frustrating situation. not only would i warn people away from this product, a previously contented creative webcam user will NEVER buy from them again.
please save yourself time, frustration, and money -- buy a different notebook camera!
