Web cam not working

[cro1950w]

I have Vimicro 2.0 USB PC Camera , and it's working fine on my computer but when I try it on Skype half of the picture is black, a litle normal and the rest zoomed in. How can i fix this?

What graphic card do you have? If it's nVidia, then what is the driver version?

[cro1950w]

I have Nvidia GeForce GTS 450 version 285.62

Most likely the solution will be to revert to the 280 version. See e.g. this:

webcam not working. It is in my windows vista

More details needed Dollly.  Nobody here is a mind reader.   For starters:

What make/model webcam?

What version of Skype?  Click on Help > About Skype for the version number?

If you go to Tools > Options > Video settings do you see your webcam in the Webcam select box?  And do you see your own video?
