Using PS2 EyeToy camera as webcam

[pesgores]

Hey guys,

I browsed many google links and tutorials on how to make my EyeToy camera work as a webcam on my computer, but I haven't been able to succeed.

My camera is the SLEH-00030 (the oldest) and I am running Windows 7. The problem is, it says the drivers are installed and okay, but the machine still refuses to let it work. What do I do?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Buy a real webcam? They really aren't that expensive.

No, not at all... if the lights aren't strong enough, it won't work properly on the PS2
