    Microsoft LifeCam 3000


    I bought an MS LifeCam HD-3000 a week ago - not expensive, but Microsoft brand, so thought it would do the basic job I needed for connecting on MS Teams in a work from home environment. In Teams I can swap between my HP laptop cam and the LifeCam. I mounted the LifeCam on my main monitor, but when activated it, it was like I was peering out of a dungeon - really dark. I didn't have time to figure out why, so I swapped to the HP which is off to the side. When I did have time, I searched the Web high and low for ways to access the settings for the LifeCam so that I could adjust brightness / contrast / colour - just the basics. After a week of intermittent searching, am I actually correct in understanding that these adjustments are just not available at all? I'm not yet willing to believe such a major failure in what looks to be a decent bit of hardware. Someone please tell me I'm wrong!

    :)

    Similar problems here with my "LifeCam HD-3000" no longer working in W10.

    I suggest that Microsoft change the marketing ...

    "DeathCam HD-3000" seems more appropriate Microsoft LifeCam 3000 :)

    Please follow these steps:

    1. Open "Device Manager".

    2. Expand "Imaging devices".

    3. Locate the name of your "Lifecam HD 3000 camera" in the list and right-click on it.

    4. Select Update Driver Software.

    5. Click Browse my computer for driver software.

    6. Click Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer.

    7. Check Show compatible hardware, and then select "USB Video Device".

    8. Click Next and follow the on-screen instructions to update the driver.
