need drivers for XBOX LIVE VISION and VISTA 32 bit

[lorenz]

I have got myself a XBOX 360 LIVE VISION webcam and I am trying to find out its driver that will work on Windows Vista. I have checked many sites and drivers for this webcam but nothing is working in my case on my system. I hope that there is a real working driver for this cam for Vista system? Can anyone please help me find its driver. Thank you.

As per the Microsoft KB article, the Xbox LIVE Vision Camera may not work as well if you run it on a Windows Vista-based computer. So, the best way to get this thing working is by installing Windows XP on your computer, even though you can still run it on Windows Vista but with minimal features or some bugs. You can read the full article explaining the problems caused by using this camera on Vista from here - http://support.microsoft.com/kb/925384

Hi @ all,

I had the same problem. To get the Live Vision Cam to work on Windows Vista (32 bit) follow these instructions:

1. Go to control panel and then click on "hardware and sound" and then on "device manager"

2. Click on "Universal Serial Bus Controllers" and right-click on the "Microsoft Xbox Security Method 3", which should be what automatically installed when you plugged the web cam in. You do not want this version.

3. Select “update driver software” and next.

4. Select “Browse my computer for driver software” and next.

5. Select “Let me pick from a list of device drivers” and next.

6. Uncheck "show compatible hardware" and then from the list select "Microsoft"

7. Select "Microsoft Xbox 360 Live Vision Camera"

8. Click next and let the Driver install.

9. Now you can use the Live vision cam in Vista like on XP
