    Hey yall

    I need some help...

    i have a clevo m860tu and im using a dualboot system between windows 7 x64 and windows xp...

    the thing is.. whenever i need to use the webcam i have to boot into xp because in 7 the cam doesnt want to work.. that is, it works.. but only shows a black screen no image no matter what...

    does anyone have the same problem? or had and solved it?

    I had a similar problem with my friend's laptop a Sony Vaio VGN-CR31. He bought it used with a Chinese version of Vista. I partitioned the hard drive and dual booted Windows 7. I had to search through the Vista partition and I did some searching to find a folder that contained the "drivers". I copied that folder into the corresponding directory in the Windows 7 partition and the camera worked fine.

    Try looking in My Computer--Local Disk C (or whatever your XP partition is)--Clevo--Drivers.

    I had exactly the same problem but in Windows Vista, I tried lots of things without any success, always got the black screen (and it didn't show any errors at all). The weird thing is I got desperate and formatted my lap and installed Windows 7, and now my Bisoncam seems to work fine.

    Hey, well there the driverset for BisonCam I think its the Windows Vista 64 ones, but they have worked perfectly fine for me. I downloaded them off Sagers website. I run Win 7 Professional. I've done quite a few webcam chats and they all worked perfectly for me.
    I'd suggest that you give the Vista drivers a try.
