Since installing the Lifecam software WLM keeps crashing randomly. Before
the installation in ran fine.

Anyone else having trouble with the Lifecam software?

Chris

Greetings Chris,

I don't have a Lifecam but what happens if you now uninstall the Lifecam software? It will
probably continue working since the drivers are separate from the software itself.

I have the exact same problem... WLM was working fine for weeks until I
installed the LifeCam VX-6000.. now it crashes randomly.. sometimes a couple
minutes, sometimes an hour.. can't find exactly what's triggering the crash,
though it always happens sometime after using the webcam in a video call ...
If I restart my comp and not launch a webcam session in WLM.. then it never
crashes... I'm running the latest version of both the LifeCam and WLM. Btw..
this also happens on my laptop (I bought two VX-6000's)... so I ruled out
anything specific with my desktop... I think there's a bug somewhere in the
code that integrates the LifeCam to WLM.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
