Note on USB Compatibility

In our testing on a wide variety of PC motherboards with integrated Universal Serial Bus 
(USB) ports, we have encountered a small number of motherboards with USB ports that do not 
meet the USB specification exactly. Unfortunately, the Video Blaster WebCam 3 may not 
operate correctly with these systems.

When you run the setup program from the Video Blaster WebCam 3 installation CD, the setup 
program automatically checks your motherboard model and revision.  If your motherboard is 
among those that have failed our test procedure, the setup program will display a warning 
message. However, due to the numerous brands of motherboards in the market, our test 
procedure is not exhaustive.  So, there may be some non-USB-compliant motherboards that 
will not trigger the display of the warning message.

So far, for some of the non-USB-compliant motherboards that we have tested, the motherboard 
manufacturers have released new versions of motherboards or BIOS to address the problem.
