Logitech Quick Cam Pro 5000

[Theseeker123]

I have just changed my Dell GX520 for a Dell 780 and tried to install the above web camera. But the screen comes up with:

"This product is not designed for your current operating system"

Is this because the new one is a 64 bit system instead of the old one, a 32 bit system? Is there an answer, other than buying a new webcam?

What is the operating system on your new and old PCs? If you've moved up to W10 you might find that Logitech haven't produced drivers for it, in which case you wil have to buy a new camera.

I have a quick cam pro 500 that works on both 32 and 64 bit Windows XP 7 & 10. You probably just need to download new drivers

Plenty of options Seeker. Good luck. This one looks good. Perhaps Bert will remember site used for the download.

Well, I`ve tried them all! The 3 mentioned by togo, do not work on my machine i`m sorry to say.
Bertrum - can you remember which site you chose to download your successful drivers?

Bhg - operating system was windows xp on the dell Gx520 and is now Windows 7 on the 780.

Still trying!!

Logitech never provided a Windows 7 driver for your camera. They only supported XP and Vista. The Vista driver might work

otherwise you almost certainly need a new webcam.

This should meet your requirements well enough:

Sorry folks, have been ill for a while. have been in touch with Logitech who say that the Pro5000 will not and was never intended for the Windows 7 version, so i guess it`s a new Webcam now!
