Presenter Crashing PowerPoint

[SenseiMike]

Hey folks,

Just wondering if anyone else has run into this:

I'm using PPT 07 with Presenter 7 and every time I ask Presenter to capture video
via the webcam, it crashes PPT 07. I can't even get it to open to the point of changing
the sound card / video capture settings (if that were the problem)...It simply crashes as soon
as I select capture video.

I'm running a Quad Core machine with a 9800GT vid card and a Dell SP2208WFP built in webcam.

Any thoughts?

Thanks!

Have you tried with any other webcam to check if this not the problem with your build-in webcam.
I use an USB webcam and it works for me.

That's not even an option as it crashes before I can change the camera. It literally crashes as soon as I click the
capture button.

There should be an option in control panel to disable the build in webcam. You can try capturing video by disabling the build in webcam. As i do not use the same machine i won't be able to tell exact steps.

GHick,

Thanks for that thought. The issue wasn't the webcam but the Live! Cam virtual avatar software that came with the Dell monitor. I uninstalled that, rebooted and voila! all is good.

Thanks for the thought!
