Post by: cewongq on July 18, 2006, 10:54:26 PM

HI! I'm trying to install a wireless cameras kit on Windows 2003 server, is there a driver for the VA11A converter??

I tried using the same downloaded from ww.x10.com, but it doesn't work.

Here is my recent experience on Windows Server 2003.  The first time i connected the correct drivers appeared to install the first time but I was having over lapping video when I switched to the 2nd camera.  This made me think there was an issue with the drivers so I did an update drivers and all heck broke loose.  Windows Server 2003 update the VA11a to the Intel Camera and refused to look or allow me to select the x10 drivers.  Basically when I selected the x10 drivers the Window would come back blank.

To get around this I renamed the following in the C:\WINDOWS\inf folder:

icam4usb.inf > icam4usb.in_
icam4usb.pnf > icam4pnf.pn_

This allowed me to connect the VA11a and be prompted for the driver location of with for my machine was:  C:\Program Files\Common Files\X10\DriverInstall\VA11A Video Capture

I hope this information is of use to someone out there.
