An icon with the name 'Universal serial bus controller' will now be visible. Click on this icon and Windows will tell you if this part of your computer system is operating correctly. Uninstall the driver software by using the Add/Remove option in the Start - Settings Control Panel - Software window (for Windows®XP & 2000: Start / Control Panel / Software). · · IMPORTANT NOTE: If the installation program asks you to place a different CD-ROM in the CD-ROM drive, for instance the installation CD-ROM or the Windows CD-ROM, always wait until: · · the 'busy' cursor icon (usually an hour-glass icon) has disappeared from your screen, and the 'busy' LED on your CD-ROM drive extinguishes, before pressing the eject button on the CD-ROM drive. This will prevent a blue Windows Error message appearing, prompting you to reinsert the last CD-ROM into the drive. Should you encounter this Windows Error message, correct the error by reinserting the CD-ROM you removed and wait for Windows to finish reading from the CD-ROM. Camera performance and system requirements At its highest resolution, this digital USB PC Camera provides a very large data stream, which needs to be processed in real-time by the application you are using. Although the camera will perform satisfactorily on a Pentium II with 32 MB RAM at the lower resolutions, we recommend a more powerful computer for optimum performance at the highest resolution. We regret that optimum camera performance cannot be guaranteed if the computer only meets the minimum system requirements. Using more than one camera If two or more Philips cameras of the same type are connected to your computer, only one of the cameras can be used at any one time. 18 USB You can connect the camera to any USB port on your computer. The computer does not have to be switched off. Several solutions are possible depending on your particular situation: 1. If your system is equipped with 2 or more USB host controllers, try connecting the camera and the optical mouse to different host controllers. (Most systems will only have one host controller. ) 2. If the first solution is not possible and you have an external microphone available and connected to your sound card, change the audio device setting to 'Sound card audio' instead of 'USB audio' to save on USB bandwidth. If the second solution does not work you can reduce the camera's USB bandwidth usage as follows: o Install ToUcamBW8. reg. o Acknowledge the registry update by answering 'Yes'. o Reboot your PC to allow the changed settings to take effect. Q: My PC will not start when the camera is connected. A: It is highly likely that your BIOS is not compatible with the USB standard. Contact your PC supplier for an updated BIOS. Q: With additional USB peripherals installed my PC seems to be unstable (blue screens). [. . . ] Pixel The smallest square or round element in an image.
