acer aspire 5610z

when i try to open [acer orbicam]it says jpeg fatal error, not a jpeg
file:starts with 0x42 0x4d.and it wont open,what does that mean and how do i
fix it.i restored it back to factory and it didnt work.the computer is only 2
weeks old HELP PLEASE

I have a similar problem, but the message I get says "orbicam has stopped
working. Windows will close the program and look for a solution." (That is a
paraphrase not the exact quote.) Then it closes and does not mention any type
of solution. My computer is only a few weeks old, too.

When the screen saver comes up and goes to the part that demonstrates the
camera, it does work. So, the problem must have something to do with software
rather than hardware

Did you download the updated files from the Acer support site ? That fixed
it for me.
Ko

I can't find the downloads on the acer support site, could you please send
the link to the correct download? I have the same orbicam problem with the
same Windows msg and neither Acer nor Windows would/could help me. AHHH, help!
