Im trying to use my webcam as a motion survielance ( if thats how you spell it) Can anyone tell me how to use Windows XP, and a logi tech cam to basically be running, and start recording when motion is detected? Is there any wares? Can it be done? suspect that my cleaning lady is stealing from my home, and I want to have the monitor screen off with the PC running.

View 14 Replies View RelatedNot sure this is the correct place to post, as I don't know what the problem IS but it is brand new tonight. I noticed this after installing two Big FIsh demo games, playing a short time and uninstalling them. I think I have also cleaned out all files related to those two games from the registry. Then I rebooted. Now, everything on my desktop has white motion lines on the right side. It looks similar to dragging a box across the screen that leaves a trail. I have checked my monotor settings, nothing there helps. Not sure what else I should do next, but this DOES seem related to the games. I did get a screen shot if someone needs to see that.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have a Toshiba Satellite R10 and when I do certain things, the mouse becomes very jerky and generally not fluid when moving from side to side. It almost stops responding completely. It is a brand new system with nothing new installed on it. Toshiba recommends using the recovery disc but it is still in "recovery disc state". Is there something I can look for that would be the cause of this before I have to send it back to Toshiba and be without for weeks?

A way to fix this, on most options, has a little choice under the mouse speed. Go to Control Panel>Mouse. Click on Pointer Options, and then you will see a bar. The first bar is the motion speed. Under that, "Enhance Pointer Precision," is shown, uncheck that and see how much faster your mouse will go.
View 9 Replies View RelatedMy computer has gotten where it quits responding almost everytime it changes to another page. Almost nothing will open for awhile, and I will have to power it off, and re-boot it to get anything, then it may be okay for a little while. I really am new to this, and don't have the first idea what I need to do. It has been running slower and slower for a month or so, and now will almost do nothing sometimes. It is about a year and a half old, my son and I share it, and we both go online regularly, but don't really download much. I have recently installed Norton 2009, and that seems to be when it got the worst.

I'm getting a wavy motion when moving a window, entire picture, etc. I've replaced the video board, same specs as the one that was in the PC. This did not help. Also, the board/drivers do not show up in device mgr. Seems strange to me. Hope some one can shed some light on this problem.
View 9 Replies View RelatedIt's taking literally minutes to open a Internet Explorer window, to open my e-mail program, and even once inside my e-mail program it takes half a minute to switch from one email to another in my inbox.The first signs were a couple weeks ago. It was taking 20 to 30 seconds to open a word document. But that was the only trouble for a while.I am running Windows XP.I installed, then un-installed SP2 about a month ago. Things seemed to work fine--until the above problems began.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have been having this problem for past 2-3 days and this is very very random. At times, my laptop would just go on a really slow motion mode where even switching windows or typing a word would take seconds / minutes and it would be fine after a few minutes. This has happened several times and I have tried to keep an eye on which program could be causing it and narrowed it down to Firefox, MSN Messenger or uTorrent because they were running at every time this problem occurred. In fact, once i forcibly closed Firefox and computer was fine. But at different times of when this occurred, either or none of those problems were running so those processes could be ruled out. When i checked Task manager, 'CPU Usage' was shot up to 100% but under 'Processes' none of the programs were hogging down the computer.
I ran Ad-Aware and Spy Sweeper and none came up with any suspicious/malicious threats. Ad-Watch was kinda slowing down my computer so i thought that could have been it but this has occurred several times after Ad-Aware's uninstallation. I have also ran a virus check and nothing came up. :s The weirdest thing is that if i forcefully shut down the computer and restart.. it still starts off in a really really slow motion mode so the slow effect somehow still carries on after computer's shutdown. I ran HijackThis and ran auto-analyzer but that came up with nothing either.
I would appreciate any input or any ideas towards solutions anyone may have.. this is getting really annoying even though i have been very patient. I am running Windows XP on a HP Tablet and all my windows update/security/anti-virus are up-to-date. I haven't installed any program in past 2-3 days except Ad-Aware and Spy Sweeper and i am never prompted for any pop-ups or anything, so being online or offline doesn't make a difference, it seems. Oh and the only processes on top of 'Mem Usage' in Task Manager are usually McAfee Service and Task Manager itself (after firefox's termination).
I have a new computer that is 3 months old. Everything has been wonderful and tonight when I logged on I cannot get my Internet server to move. It is total slow motion. I did a spyware check, virus scan and nothing surfaced. At one time I could not even change my homepage from Yahoo to MSN. Now it takes forever to flip a page.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI've recently reistnalled XP and I'm experiencing weird problems when moving windows on the screen, or scrolling, everything is in slow motion.I can't play movies on full screen, and some games are poor in rendering. I have tried all the possible optimizations, but I believe the problem might be in the video card, when I tried to reinstall the video driver, I was told that the video card is not installed properly, but how could this be? I mean, I haven't touched the hardware, what am I supposed to do?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI recently read the article on Tom's Hardware about using a camcorder as a webcam. They used crappy, free USB drivers and the results were HORRIBLE. WebCamDV has very good quality, pretty much perfect, but it is only for FireWire connected camcorders. My camcorder doesn't have a firewire connection, it only has USB (supposed to be for quick captures). Is there software that gets similair results to WebCamDV, only from a USB connection?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a 1.3MP USB webcam. I have 2 PCs. The webcam works all right with the laptop, except that machine is too wimpy to support video conferencing. When I connect the same webcam to my desktop, it SEEMS to be OK; it is recognized, drivers install OK, BUT when I use (for example) the Skype video set-up, it all seems to work, I can command the webcom ON (and the LED lights up), BUT there is NO VIDEO shown, just a black screen. All info screens show the webcam is OK, but I can't get the PC to recognize any video from it.

I've tested faxing from Word on my PC and it works fine.However, when other users try to install the fax client, the setup hangs asking for the fx* setup files. I've tried different XPSP2 CDs, copying the files to a local directory, making sure that the users have local admin rights (and even domain admin rights) but to no avail. The files are already in the system32 directory so in theory the setup doesn't even need to copy them. Even if I delete them, it doesn't work.Our corporate SMS team reckons that there isn't any policy which could
cause the problem.

My question is how do I stop XP on this disk from thinking it has to launch Setup? I dont want to reinstall XP, as that will involve a huge amount of work to recreate my environment.
