    Hi Camena_49, Welcome to majorgeeks.
    Sorry your problem was not picked up yesterday- it is possibly because you joined an old thread on a similar question.
    If your webcam is the same, then the previous parts of this thread will help a little.
    However, if you would post back your computer specifications, that would help to find the fix, and correct any driver/file problems.
    Depending on your present knowledge of your computer, and ability, there are many on majorgeeks who can guideyou, if you need it.
    If you are able to tell us---
    Your operating system- XP/2000/VISTA ?
    Which Motherboard that you have---Chipset ( we can find your chipset if you cannot, from your motherboard) As some chipsets need workarounds to solve shutdowns (Blue Screen Of Death- known as a BSOD)
    The type, manufacturer, and model number of your Webcam (Logitech is the one discussed previously, on this thread.)
    If it is a Logitech, the links are

    http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/405/&cl=us,en?prodcrid=405

    http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/447/3876&cl=us,en

    Come back, for more help, if you need it -
    If you are not sure, a little program can tell you all, download from majorgeeks
