Lego Vision Command Camera Drivers (Vista)

Rewind about 9 years and I was the coolest kid on the block when I unpacked my Lego Mindstorm Vision Command for the world to drool at:

9 years and countless operating systems later, support for this system is now essentially non-existent. Few still design Lego robots using the obsolete RCX 1.0 system and drivers are no longer made for the Vision Command Camera.

I was determined to get my lego camera working with Vista and after countless hours of internet searching, I discovered that the Vision Command Camera is essentially an old "Logitech Camera Web".
I eventually happened upon a link to a driver that made the camera work in Vista:
is730enu.exe

Unfortunately the microphone would not work with this driver - though I did not feel as strong a need to get that working. So there you have it. A somewhat complete fix to getting your Vision Command Camera working with Vista.

A Blog... by any other name

Since the dawn of time, man has...

Just joking. This blog will hopefully embody all the interesting thoughts and experiences that I've lived through. It will not focus on one specific topic; rather, a collection random posts related to my life. Hopefully, this will serve as a good reference to future me; but if you are reading this and you are not future me, I hope you gain some valuable insights as well.

Who does this blog appeal to most?
Someone exactly like me.

What will I talk about mostly?
  • Finance and Investing
  • Technology
  • Life
