Thanks to you both...I had mixed results:

extracted the .exe file form the zip and then double-clicked it to install the drivers, but after clicking Finish when complete, I got back a msg that the program may not have installed correctly...I clicked OK to proceed anyway. Reflecting on my decision, I chose to double-click the .exe file again and was presented with the option to Repair the first installation, which I chose. Did not get the error message the second time. What puzzles me is that the "USB cam" that appears in the Device Manager shows properties of a Microsoft camera...where is my Chicony!?

I can appreciate that now, but moving forward? Can't change the past :/

Exactly, and the sixth camera driver down is an x86 driver (32bit)...

So, latecomer, do I use the sixth one down in your post #46 or the second one down in your post #47??
