Steve. I have installed an NX-6000 on my computer running XP, I can get a
picture of myself on my computer screen, but it does not want to send it to
the person I am talking with. This is on Yahoo Messenger. It also shows the
message "invalide picture size"
I would be pleased to find out where I went wrong?
