[HOWTO} Eyetoy to webcam

If you dont have a web cam but always wanted one abd you have a eyetoy you can use your eyetoy as a webcam by installing some drivers to your computer so it can recognize the eyetoy and run it!

Installation instructions
Step 1: Identify your EyeToy and get the correct drivers

Open Device Manager by going to Start Menu > Control Panel > System > Hardware > Device Manager. Plug your EyeToy into your computer’s USB port - if Windows gives you a “Welcome to the Found New Hardware Wizard” popup, cancel it and continue installing via Device Manager. You EyeToy should appear in the Device Manager list under “Imaging devices” and should have a big yellow exclamation alert next to it. It will also tell you which model EyeToy you have - either Namtai or Logitech.

Use your EyeToy as a webcam

Download and extract the appropriate drivers for your EyeToy:

• Download the Logitech EyeToy drivers


• Download the Namtai EyeToy drivers

If you don’t know how to extract zip files, then read this.
Step 2

Still in Device Manager, right click on your EyeToy and select “Update Driver”.

Step 4

Step 5

Browse to the folder where you extracted the drivers.

Step 6

You can safely click ‘Continue anyway’ here. This warning just means that Microsoft doesn’t recognize the drivers and have not given them the “Microsoft Stamp Of Approval”.

Step 7

Just click OK.

Step 8

Read the prompt, have a look around and see where you are, then click Yes or No.

Use your EyeToy as a webcam
Step 9

Done!

Use your EyeToy as a webcam
Step 10 - Use it!

Test it out!
To easily test your EyeToy as a webcam, you can use VIDCAP32.exe, which is included with the drivers. This is a webcam preview application that tests if Windows has successfully been able to install your EyeToy as a webcam - just open it and click on ‘preview’.
