Using the The Creative Labs Video Blaster webcam II?
It has been found that some MSAPI compliant speech programs interfere with the Direct Memory Access (DMA) of the Creative Labs Video Blaster webcam II. Solution: set the camera driver to “Don’t do DMA” via Control Panel | System | Hardware tab | Device Manager button | Imaging devices | Creative Video Blaster Webcam II | Settings | Options | Don’t do DMA. Next restart The vOICe Learning Edition. A similar procedure may also apply to other brands of cameras, although the details of the menus will generally be different.
