    Well, if you are missing the software for the device it's a pretty big problem, I suggest googling "ULead webcam freeware" and hope you get lucky with a freeware program, otherwise you would have to pay for the software...Or try something else...>> <<

    Mhm, if you lost the install disc there really isn't much...I'm sure that the software that came with it isn't free, and unless you want to buy it again you will have to search for freeware.

    Try searching the program you used to have. Somehow track down the camera company, go to their site and then support there. See if they can mail you out a new CD for it. I'm waiting for one from Logitech... they're really slow with that crap...
