Summary: bad support
Comment: Pros: Good price, acceptable image quality.
Cons: You cannot locate the driver for xp system on the official creative web site, which makes this product like a one-time web camera -- you can only install it on a computer after you bought it because that's the time driver CD is available. I would rate zero for such a web site and any product supported by it.

Summary: Works on XP, OK Picture Quality, NOT for Vista
Comment: There are much better available, avoid this "Creative Webcam" unless you are getting it cheap and are only installing it on an XP PC. It does not work on Vista.

It did install fairly quickly on my XP PCs (we have 3 of these webcams) and performs well enough for video chatting. The picture quality is just OK, nothing special. The included software is also OK and does what you expect it to do.

Not recommended.

Summary: Get something else
Comment: I got this for $10, but it was too much. This webcam provides very poor quality video. Even with things close-up, you will never get the picture focused enough to be better than blurry. I had no trouble with installation of software with WinXP.

Summary: vista?
Comment: ok be careful with vista. officially creative does not have a vista driver for this one. creative does support vista on other products. this is too old. Microsoft will say it is not compatible with this camera at all. the last driver for it was xp 64 bit. it is hard to find it now. If you have vista you can get it to work with some tweaking. simply download the right driver for your system x86 or x64 in XP format. then here is the secret, right click the driver exe and go to properties. then compatibility. click run in compatibility for windows xp. then click ok and run the driver installation. it will work in vista. be sure to unplug the camera first and then plug it in when asked. and voila, I am using mine in vista right now :)
