That lenovo T61 is a pretty borderline rig for running Vista. Perhaps you have upgraded it but did this spec. not come with XP Pro installed??. However another forum member seemed to find a solution with vista. See

It looks like Sony isn't providing drivers yet. You may be out of luck (for now).
 

Eye Toy as Webcam

I am new to Windows Vista--and to webcams! But i have been told taht I can use my Eye Toy camera as a webcam for msn messenger...How do I install it?
 

Same here. I just tried to install it using the CP method and ended up getting a blue screen and an "unexpected shutdown". Any help?
 

I did it on my mac with a program called macam (yes, spelt macam) and my freind did it on his windows XP based system so its possible.
 

OK dudes
There isnt any Drivers for vista, yet, they might be later this year tho, not rly sure, but for XP users, heres the driver link -
make sure u download the right one (it says on the bottom of the eye toy)

Hi Jackk Bru

Have a look at the link below that seems to show there is a solution in vista:

i have vista and my logitech webcam works with it no probs haha i was able to do this on my first day of getting vista its quite tricky but it is possible!!! i will repost and tell you how to do it =]
 

oh it looks like i dont need to tell you, superbill has given you a good link =]
 

This isn't working for me. I was able to get the eyetoy to work on my desktop which is running XP, but no on my laptop which is running vista. I think it may have something to do with the service pack update. My problem is, I get it all installed and it looks like it would work, but when I test it, it says the D link VGA webcam is not working. I have also tried with a few webcam chat rooms and it doesnt work. Anyone have a similiar problem. I have a lenovo T61 laptop by the way and I don't have vista ultimate just the basic home edition.
