Can't blame Amazon, but this webcam does NOT work with XP no matter what you try.
I've waisted hours trying to install it, downloading drivers that don't work from the company's website (and other sites as well), speaking with customer support (who promised TWICE to e-mail me the drivers, but never did), and after all that trouble, it still won't work.
I wouldn't even try any other Micro Innovations products, due to their terrible support and service.

This webcam is good for video conferencing online. If you're searching for a cheap webcam, and this one happens to be the best price you can find, then I say get it. I noticed that motion is blurry on this particular webcam compared to the last cheap one I had. And I'm not sure if I just didn't set the settings properly, but it seems to need a lot of light to work too. Putting the different colored faceplates on is a little hard, but who cares about that really.

I downloaded XP driver from their website and patch also. Now XP doesnot complain about new hardware but I dont see ANYTHing on my camera. I dont know whats the problem. It run very well on my old PC but does not work on new one that has XP. SO as I changed my PC , i will have to go buy some other new webcam now.

The quality of this webcam isn't horrible, but it's not the greatest. For the low price it's not that bad. I've had mine for a few years and have greatly enjoyed it. I've had no XP trouble what-so-ever, aside from the quality it works perfectly.

This thing is a huge pain in the (...) to set up for XP. The drivers available online don't contain all the necessary files, and I've been trying for about an hour just to get XP to see that I have a camera connected. In this day and age, no hardware should be this difficult to set up, especially on a new computer running the latest OS. Luckily for me I got this camera free after rebate. And I think I overpaid. :S
