Logitech Quickcam 4000 Pro very slow!
Yes, I know Logitech Quickcam 4000 is very old and not officially supported in Windows 7.... But eventually my Windows 7 (32 bit) does eventually find a fully functional driver for it. Both camera and built-in microphone are reported as "Logitech Quickcam 4000 pro" in the Device Manager and driver version 10.5.1.2023.
So everything looks OK and it does functionally work, but... I get only about 1 frame per second! so it is not usable in Skype. However, on the same PC with Windows XP or Linux Mint I get nice streaming video, so it is definitely a software or configuration issue of some kind.
I did also look for a Vista driver and installed it manually, but that appears to be the same driver as the one that Windows finds. I know some other people have a Quickcam 4000 pro working properly in Windows 7 so I hope to get some advice here. I just hate to buy a new camera for this because it works well on the same PC on XP or Linux!
