I did a search on this and found nothing, if I overlooked something, let me know.

Is anyone having any luck using the USB2.0 Web cam on the 5793 with Yahoo or Stickam? I have meetings coming up and I would like to use it with Yahoo but cannot get it to recognize the built in cam! Yahoo says it isn't connected and Stickam just gives me a blue screen where the camera should work!
The camera works fine on the laptop, but that's the only place! Any clues?

Thanks in advance

It works on Windows Live Messenger for me, but I don't use yahoo or stickam. Others may know more about your problem..... I would double check the camera and the settings on the messenger.

If you don't mind me asking, what are your settings? I can't even get it to work on Windows Live Messenger

How did you fix it ? :) Was it a driver issue ?

I kind of feel like an idiot now! I had the camera open and running, and then tried to log onto yahoo and messenger live before clicking on web cam in those two applications. You don't have to do that, in fact that keeps it from working! duh!

I'm still having issues with Stickam though. It still gives me a blue screen when I click on web cam, whether or not I have the cam open or closed. I'm still working on it, once I figure it out I'll post what I did if someone doesn't already have the answer they would love to share with me! :D
