Dynex Webcam Issue - Black screen
One of my project manager faced the black screen issue in dynex webcam.He asked me to solve this issue.I gooogle and find out the simple solution.The solution is below.
I know this camera has had a bit of a bad rap, but I'm here to clear all that up. After getting it set up right after some research, I found this webcam to be a nice & neat gadget. The video & picture qualities are somewhat more refined than the Microsoft VX-3000 (which I own as well). And the mic on the camerca works fine as long as the echoes are cleared out (which happens to all mics once in a while).
I strongly recommend this camera to anyone looking for a nice lil webcam with multi-functionality with a low price tag.
For direction on getting beyond the black screen:
I realized that 99% of customers (PC) have problems getting beyond the black screen so here's the step by step instruction on on to set your Dynex DX-DTCAM correctly.
1.) Without plugging in the webcam, install the driver directly from the CD-ROM
2.) Now plug in the webcam into the USB, and Windows will say "new device detected"
3.) Click the advanced option in wich you can choose the drivers folder. Then on the next window you click on the *manually choose* option.
4.) You will see the Dinex drivers appear, select it and install.
DO NOT UPDATE DRIVERS FROM THE DYNEX SUPPORT SITE. It's useless & will confuse the hardware.

Oi, achei seu blog pelo google está bem interessante gostei desse post. Gostaria de falar sobre o CresceNet. O CresceNet é um provedor de internet discada que remunera seus usuários pelo tempo conectado. Exatamente isso que você leu, estão pagando para você conectar. O provedor paga 20 centavos por hora de conexão discada com ligação local para mais de 2100 cidades do Brasil. O CresceNet tem um acelerador de conexão, que deixa sua conexão até 10 vezes mais rápida. Quem utiliza banda larga pode lucrar também, basta se cadastrar no CresceNet e quando for dormir conectar por discada, é possível pagar a ADSL só com o dinheiro da discada. Nos horários de minuto único o gasto com telefone é mínimo e a remuneração do CresceNet generosa. Se você quiser linkar o Cresce.Net(www.provedorcrescenet.com) no seu blog eu ficaria agradecido, até mais e sucesso. If is possible add the CresceNet(www.provedorcrescenet.com) in your blogroll, I thank. Good bye friend.
Thanks a lot. Very helpful instructions.
i lost the driver i need for the camera... what do i do? is there a site i can go to so i can get it installed?
I recently got a new inspiron 1420 laptop. I tried to install the driver to use the webcam but i also got a black screen. I've tried your advice but there is no advanced option to choose from when i plug my webcam into the laptop. Any idea how to fix this?
Does this web cam have Skype capabilities? Our cousin in Chile has Skype and that's who we'll be using it with. Will this web cam work?

I have this webcam, and was able to run it fine in Windows XP, but I also run Ubuntu, which is not supported by Dynex software. About using it with Skype: It should work fine once you can get the driver working.
thanks for your help i have been trying to get this web cam to work for a long time so my family from overseas can see there grandchildren finally got it thank you
I faced this problem recently and kept trying the other "automatic" way but it would still not work. I tried your technique and now it works fine?
Thanks!
