Hi,
I am tools. I have a modified Quickcam 4000 per Steve Chambers
mod. However I cant get a display or picture displayed on my laptop
when I open K3CCd. When I use the software that came with the camera
it works fine. Can anybody help. Needless to say I am very frustrated.I get an error that video source is not detected.
thanks Troy

Troy,
I have had problems with K3CCD not recognizing my ToUcam after running K3CCD without the camera attached to the USB port. I got the same message regarding not detecting a video source. I could never figure out what the K3 tools were doing (I assume it notes the absence of the camera in a file somewhere). The only solution I found that 'corrected' this condition was to re-install the K3CCD tools from scratch WITH THE CAMERA ATTACHED. I never execute K3CCD without it attached.
