I've plugged in my LifeCam vx3000 webcam into a USB port. The webcam is seen but Windows 11 reports 'No available driver'. I've done all the usual Searches, Troubleshooting etc. but to no avail?

    Hi, thanks for your update. I have Windows 11 (as of 10 Oct 2023), and have a VX-3000 camera (very old). I have tried installing the drivers first from:

    https://www.catalog.update.microsoft.com/Search.aspx?q=vx-3000

    using the AMD64 Windows 7 driver (the third one down in the list). I used Windows Explorer to unpack the .cab file and extract all, and used Device Manager to install the driver. It said there was an error, and looking at the Properties of the camera, it says the device will not start.

    I then tried your .cab file above, using the same method, and got exactly the same result.

    I compared the contents of the two .cab files and they are very similar but not identical.

    Can you advise??
