Hi all
having some problems with Skype webcam features.
In Skype, when I am chatting to somebody with a webcam, I can not see the video feed at all, a large Grey like box opens and no video.
This is also the same case when I try to use my own webcam.
I have downloaded all the latest drivers for the webcam, and the camera works great with its own software, but in skype, I can not receive nor send Video.
I have downloaded the latest version of the webcam drivers and of Skype also.
I have tried it with Norton security suite onand Off - still no difference
Any help would be great.

If I check the options, and use the Test webcam feature in Skype, the same thing happens, grey box opens only and nothing else.
