So I picked up the Xbox Live Vision Camera today, and seeing as how it’s just USB, I plugged it into my laptop to see what would happen. It works! Interestingly enough, a second USB device shows up: “Microsoft Xbox 360 Live Vision Security Method 3″. It doesn’t install any actual driver files, but it definitely recognizes it and goes through a long brouhaha getting it up and running. If you plug it in, let it connect to windows update and everything should work out eventually.

Monday, September 25th, 2006My Current Gaming Rig
Tuesday, October 4th, 2005A few years back I decided that I wanted to use a laptop to put my life on and do the things I did on computers. Gaming has always been important to me and at the time it just wasn’t possible on a laptop. 3D chipsets were almost exclusively the realm of desktop video cards. However, after many years of watching and waiting, I finally made the jump from a desktop to a laptop.
Nvidia 6200 video cards rock!
Friday, June 10th, 2005I’ve got to say the Nvidia 6200 chipset is a sweet deal. You can find 128MB cards for under $100 online and they’re great entry-level cards. Much better than anything in the 5xxx line. Whatever you do, do NOT get anything that has “TurboCache” on it. That’s marketroid for “We use system memory for graphics”.
