Windows live messenger video issues

Hi
I have a new system which runs windows 7. When using live messenger the audio works fine both ways but the video only works on the incoming side the outgoing screen is grey.
The web cam was taken from my old XP system and it still works fine on this. It is a Creative Labs IM pro web cam.
Can any one offer any suggestions
Thanks
Ray

Hi
I used the installation disc which came with the cam but it does not say which systems it supports, It is around 3 years old
Thanks

I would prefer to go online, as they're more recent/updated, the disc you have has older drivers.
