I had similar problems with my Creative WebCam NX Pro 2. After much googling I found the following suggestion worked. Try plugging the camera into a USB _1.x_ hub (or try bypassing the hub completely). Either workaround solved the problem for me. My camera won't initialize correctly if it's plugged into any of my USB 2 hubs (or into an add-on NEC-chipset USB2 pci card for that matter). It seems this is a semi-common issue with webcams (not just the spca52xxx driver). I don't know why USB transactions with a webcam would be so touchy, but a USB hard drive runs fine a full capacity through the same USB port... -- Brad -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
