I've got a webcam and when i use it on MSN or yahoo it always turns off after about 1 minute of it being on, i then have to un plug it and plug it back in and it'll let me use it again.
Wats up with it?
I'm running a 200 MMX pentium, 7BG hard drive, not sure what the memory is.

Theres your problem. The Pc is using all the processor and memory power on the webcam. It cant handle it being on for longer than it is. Get yourself a decent computer. You can get a computer thats a lot better than that for under ?500.
