I use a Labtech WebCam and it happens to me occasionally. The thing that
really frustrates me is that the audio doesn't work. I don't know what my
friend on MSN uses but his audio doesn't work, either. We have used the
audio/video tune several times, but it is to no avail. MSN says our audio is
just fine, but it doesn't work online. I use this only as a comparrision,
but the audio does work fine for me with Yahoo Messesnger. I wonder is there
something we are both missing that it doesn't work on MSN?
thanks and your advice is appreciated. It worked well concerning the log on
problem I was having earlier.
