justaflygirl 0 #1 April 21, 2005 so I bought a new one today, (same model as my old one) my old one, at one time showed like a purple haze on everything, then after some tinkering, everything had an orange cast on it, which looked worse than the purple. New one: I uninstall all old stuff, so I can start from scratch with the new camera, results...black fuzz screen, no image at all I would like to think I'm not a computer moron, but I am really perplexed on this one.

Okay, mind (relieved) out of the gutter. I'm sorry I'm no good for helping with this at a distance. If I were right there, I'd probably have ideas about how to make the thing work (I got my own one working -- unfortunately, even though it "works," it's not supported by Yahoo so I can't really use it). If you can't manage it by the time I come for a visit next, I'll try to help. -Jeffrey-Jeffrey "With tha thoughts of a militant mind... Hard line, hard line after hard line!"
