I've sucessfully installed the cam, and after about 3-5 minutes of having it active (On msn) Loads and loads and loads of small blue lines will cover 2 thirds of the screen!
Then after about 30 seconds of that the 2 thirds of the screen will go completely black!
And It won't tell me what's wrong!
What should I do?
