Aurora m7700; Anyone ever get the camera to work?

Hey guys, just wondering if anyone figured out how to get the darn m7700 camera to work properly with a clear picture. I installed the drivers that were given to me with the laptop and updated them online (still don't know if I ever got the newest ones), and I'm still getting a grayishly blurry image. Has anyone gotten it to work? If so could you please post a drivers link or at least a screen shot of how it looks with the right drivers? Thanks a lot.

I have an intel based 7700, but keep in mind its only a 640 x 480 image and the quality just isn't that great. My drivers worked just fine though....

Mine came with a CD that had the driver on it.... and I thought it was in AW's support site.

Thanks a lot for the help guys. I can see a picture (used your drivers BFisch, don't remember what the previous ones), however it's not letting me fully adjust the color.
Is the camera seposed to be in black & white? If so than it's working normally, but if not here's what I found out; Under "Video Prop Amp" I can only control the level of Brightness (150), Contrast (40), Saruration (30) and Sharpness (7). Hue, Gamma, White balance, Backlight Comp and ColorEnable are greyed out. Video Image panel; under Light I get the options of FLorescent-50Hz,60Hz and Incadescent. I get to change the White Balance but the Exposure is greyed out as well however. If If matters at all; my camera version is 1.24 (under "help --> about...").
I'd greatly appreciate if you guys posted your settings (doesnt have to be long) and what adjusts the color (if anything).

Sorry but I rarely use the camera so I doubt my settings would be useful as they are all at default :S

Same here. Mine seemed just fine the way it was and it looks really good for a webcam actually. I use skype to talk to people and a few people have commented that the picture seems really nice.
