Generic Webcam Drivers?

WORFWORF The Burninator
A friend of mine has borrowed a webcam but she doesn't have the drivers for it or any idea who made it or what model it is.

She described it as looking like a cat, I dont know that would be helpful or not.

So we are looking for generic drivers for WinXP if there is such a thing, anyone have any ideas?

    Most 2000 drivers work fine on XP. But you have to know the brand and at least a general idea of the model. If there is a driver, they will tell you it exists and sometimes even provide a link. But at least then you know there IS a driver... [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/smile.gif[/img]

    There are no such things as generic drivers for webcams

    If it looks like a Cat (girl speak), it might be a Creative Labs Web Cam...

    I bought one of those a few years ago, and it works great... and in the right interpretation it does look like a cat...

    Actually, Jack, I think it might be the new 'Cat Cam' from Logitech. Drivers are on the site.

    That cat doesn't look too happy about having a camera embedded in it's forehead.
