Dell Resource CD - Windows XP

Question

Hi, I am new to the forum, and well, I will try to explain my problem (notice that my English is pretty bad, and I will be guided by a translator to understand each other better)

It turns out that 1 year and half ago I bought my laptop, Inspiron 1520 - Windows Vista, but things change from 5-6 months of operating system and install Windows XP.

Everything is fine except the webcam, here is a picture that shows:

Not found a driver compatible webcam. Please reinstall the driver for the webcam from disk DELL RESOURCE CD and then run Webcam Center again.

Attempt to make such photos or record videos, but will not let me, so it is clear that the disk that I brought my laptop, only for Vista and XP is not compatible, so if someone is kind enough to tell me how to solve ... will be eternally grateful.

I have downloaded all possible drivers from the official Dell site and they will not or can not be downloaded.

Un saludo.

Thank you very much.

Hi These are the drivers for XP HERE for your system, and is the driver application for your webcam.

Yeah, I tried to download the files in those links, but I said: Cannot dowload the application. The application is missing required files. Contact application vendor for assistance. :emotion-6:

I've seen that error posted here by others trying to use the new Dell Download Manager.

If the download manager seems to be the problem, here are FAQ's on removing the Download Manager and clearing the browser so you can just use the regular download function:

Or, you can try and see if you can get it directly from Dell's FTP site:

But that driver is for Vista ... I just downloaded, I installed and I was back out of it:

Oops, sorry. There are 2 downloads: that one is the application. The one below is listed as the driver. But both are listed as compatible with XP AND Vista, not just Vista.

Another member was able to get everything working by following the specific driver install order after installing XP. See Betonistu's post here:
