Answer 1

A couple of ways to start it up:

1. Yahoo messenger lets you start it up for video chat.

2. Windows Movie Maker lets you start it up for video capture.

3. In "My Computer", you may also find a listing for the camera. You should be able to turn it on with an "Open" option.

4. Or any other application/software that lets you do video capture.

I'm not sure but that's a very good question
