Every time I plug it in the blue light shows for a quick second then goes out.
Now when I turn off or restart my computer the light goes on and the web cam works.
Then it goes off again.

I’m also having trouble with the microphone on the cam. It won’t work anymore! It use to work.

I have Windows Vista.

Does your camera work in the Test Application provided in the CL-Eye Driver? Also as for the Microphone the PS3 uses generic microphone drivers to support audio capture so we have little say in that… normally it should work fine tho. Please let us know your progress.
