| Subyek: How Do I Add a Webcam to Yahoo Instant Messenger for Vista? Sun Oct 21, 2012 7:48 pm | |
| Instructions Prepare your computer. Download Yahoo Messenger and install it on your Vista machine. Plug your speakers and microphone into your computer.Put your the installation CD for your webcam in the CD drive. Turn off the installation wizard that comes up, so you can be sure of not installing any software you might not want on your computer yet.Plug the webcam into a USB port. Windows Vista recognizes new hardware and pops up a message that tells you that it is installing the drivers for it. A notification icon shows up in the taskbar so you know when Vista is finished. If Vista does not automatically install the drivers, a window comes up that gives you the option to locate and install the driver software, which you want to select.Click the continue button on the next window that tells you Windows needs your permission to continue.Choose "Don't search online" on the next window that appears to ask for your permission to look for the drivers online. If the next window that shows up tells you that Windows could not find the driver software, click on the option that says "Browse my computer for driver software."Browse to the CD drive and click the "Next" button. Let the hardware manager find the drivers and install them. The pop up notification icon says "Your devices are ready to use" when the installation process finishes.Test your webcam to make sure it is compatible with the Yahoo service by using Yahoo's webcam testing site.Launch Yahoo Instant Messenger and hover over one of your buddies on your list. Click the down arrow and choose "Start Video Call." To hang up, click on the "End Call" button in the conversation window. | |
