with
VID_054C&PID_0154
Select ‘Replace All’
Save OV519.inf
Then, plug your Eye Toy into the USB port, wait for it to be recognised and
install the drivers’ in the normal way using the Have Disk option at the
prompt and the modified OV519.inf file.
(double check which drivers you’re installing as my Win2k attempted
to install its own driver)
During the installation, you’ll get a system box with ???? in it…this is
the 50Hz/60Hz option setting. I set it to 50Hz for now.
That’s it.
The software to view the webcam output is included in the driver pack…
AMCAP.EXE, Options>Tick Preview
You should now get a picture of whatever your EyeToy is pointed at.
UPDATE: Well, just tried it, and it works, on XP with SP1 installed…
UPDATE 2: Fuller information on this procedure can be FOUND HERE
UPDATE 3: Please note that I am NOT providing a free tech support service for getting your eyetoy working on your PC so complaining that it doesn’t work and asking for help will get you nowhere.
