    Red face DDHelp Error when Accessing Digital Camera

    When trying to take a picture with an Intel Pocket PC Camera, the message "DDhelp error caused in " occurs. I've tried multiple things to counteract this, yet nothing seems to work. Windows98SE, and ME have been installed and uninstalled on 3 seperate occasions, and the software that Intel provides does not work with Windows2000. I've also tried two different versions of DirectX, 7.0a, and 8.0a (neither worked). No virii have been found on the PC (scanned both on winME, and win2000), so that's not an issue. Which leaves me with one reason...me video card. An ATI Radeon 64MB DDR, which to my knowledge should have no problem with the Windows 9x platform OS's.
    Specs on my system:
    Windows 2000, WinME (dual boot)
    750MHZ AMD Athlon
    256MB PC133 SDRAM
    ATI Radeon 64MB DDR
    40GB HDD
    Creative Live! Gamer Sound Card

    I would like to know who, if anyone, has had a problem similar to this...and maybe a way to fix this problem.

    Thank You,
    Brian

    Question

    Just a question. Does this camera hook up to the USB port, and if so, have you installed the drivers for the USB? Also, have you enabled USB support in the system setup? Also see if Intel has an updated driver for this pocket camera

    The camera is USB, and yes...I have enabled USB support. The drivers to my knowledge are the most updated, Intel does not provide any updates. I have crossed out and kind of software conflicts, because of the actions i took last night. Freshly installed Win98SE, installed the video card, installed the camera. Still would not work. I'm thinking that there's something wrong with the video card, or direct x.
