    Running Vision Command on XP —Ted Hess
   I think I found the key to my previous success at getting VCS to run on W2K/XP. This is the good news - The bad news is you need to get a copy of RIS 2.0 and run the VCS update utility on the RIS CD. I don't know if this update is available from (...)

        Re: Running Vision Command on XP —Thomas Hoeg-Jensen
     Great work, Ted. Do you think a similar hack could make Lego Studios run under XP? Anyway, this workaround just underlines the poor, poor support from Lego. The VC/Studios support sites does not even mention XP! Wake up, Lego! A company thats says (...) (22 years ago, 30-Jan-02, to lugnet.robotics.vc)
    
         Re: Running Vision Command on XP —Darren Townsend
     (...) I now have Studios up and running within XP. I had to download a new driver from the Logitech site for the camera and then it was just a case of setting the compatibility option for Lego Studios so that it thinks it is still running in Win (...)

     (...) etc... Thanks for the instructions, I followed them all except the bit on VCS VERSION 1.1, so I was only partly successfull. LegoCam is working. Any other suggestions as to where one gets this ? Any idea what the update actually contains ? (...) (22 years ago, 4-Mar-02, to lugnet.robotics.vc)
    
         Re: Running Vision Command on XP —Ted Hess
     Well, it would be nice if Lego would make this "update" available on-line. AFAIK, this update is only on the RIS 2.0 CD. Perhaps, you could order the RIS 2.0 updgrade from Lego. I suppose this update was to make VCS compatible with RIS 2.0 which (...) (22 years ago, 4-Mar-02, to lugnet.robotics.vc)

        Re: Running Vision Command on XP —Russ Sprouse
     (...) Ted (and all): Please forgive my ignorance, but could you explain or point me to an explanation of how I perform step 6. "Edit and import legovcs.reg into RegEdit" I'm not a computer jock (though I am fairly competant) and am nervous about (...) (22 years ago, 16-Mar-02, to lugnet.robotics.vc)
   
        Re: Running Vision Command on XP —Chris Daniel
     Hi all, A little birdie over at consumer affairs told me a patch is in the works! I was also told that this set is being discontinued. I should know more after a few more e-mail communications. I haven't played with the software yet, is it even (...) (22 years ago, 22-Mar-02, to lugnet.robotics.vc)
    
         Re: Running Vision Command on XP —Chris Daniel
     I recieved this info today, and sounds like good news to me. "I can answer the questions for this gentleman however I don't know if he'll be any less frustrated. We are working on a Vision Command patch so it can install and run on Windows XP (...) (22 years ago, 22-Mar-02, to lugnet.robotics.vc)
    
         VC under Win2k -- was: Running Vision Command on XP —Geert-Jan Kruijff
     Ted Hess recently posted a mail here with a procedure for installing Vision Command under Windows XP. He had not (yet) tried Windows 2000. I did (Win2k Professional edition), and the bottom line is Ted's procedure works for Win2k as well. Ted -- (...) (22 years ago, 24-Apr-02, to lugnet.robotics.vc)
   
        Running Vision Command on XP —Lloyd Gordon
     Thanks for the advice, I now have VC working on Xp. I had one idea which made the process easier. I installed VC on a separate Win98 partition (C:\) on my HD. Since Xp can use the FAT32 Win98 partition, I didn't have to transfer the VC files to (...) (22 years ago, 2-Jun-02, to lugnet.robotics.vc)
   
        Re: Running Vision Command on XP —Emily Williams
   Hello! I have just bought the VC set, and was attempting to follow the instructions provided by Ted back in January to install VC on my WinXP Professional system. I got stuck at step 3. When I run the QuickCam Setup program from the VC CD, I get the (...) (22 years ago, 16-Sep-02, to lugnet.robotics.vc)
   
        Re: Running Vision Command on XP —Emily Williams
   I am replying to my own message here -- I followed some links on the Lego 'club' forum pages and found an excellent, step-by-step instruction set. It is fundamentally the same as Ted's, but with some changes (a bit easier). Thanks to the writer of (...) (22 years ago, 17-Sep-02, to lugnet.robotics.vc)
