Webcam use in Messenger
Hi Guys and Girls
Wonder if any of you PC whizz kids may be able to help. I tried to set up a video conversation with a friend using my webcam and MS messenger, when I clicked on the icon for video conversation I got a message saying bandwidth exceeded?
apparently the webcam requires 70% of the bandwidth in order to operate. From my (very) limited understanding of this I believe it means USB bandwidth. I am on a broadband connection.
Any advice (in real simple terms please!) would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks a lot

No help, but to prove you are not alone! This sometimes happens at my son's end (he's in Sydney and I'm in the UK). When I try again some time later it works! I too would appreciate a reason.
