My credo
If you're not making mistakes, you're not learning.
So I take care of people who have various developmental disabilities and one of my guys (who is pretty higher functioning) wants a webcam for his computer. (he wants to talk with his G/F with skype/gmail-chat/etc., on the days he can't see her)

The problem is, He's still running Windows 2k (which does everything he really needs, until this webcam thing) but I can't find snot for a webcam that supports Windows 2K.

Does anybody know of a webcam that'll work? It doesn't have to even be a super high quality one, as it's an older computer anyways.

I'd really appreciate it if anyone can help me out. :icon_pepsi:

Do you happen to have one to try? a large portion of the time the xp drivers will work in 2k unless it has an OS check in it (which just means it thinks it won't work )
