You should be able to go into My Computer and click the Bison Cam to open it up. Then you can select the command to Capture, or whatever. I forgot the exact process after opening up the Cam, but, yeah, it takes stills.

I have an m9700, not an m9750, but to take stills, just go into My Computer, click on bison cam, and in the left menu the top selection is "take a new picture". You can save the pics in that folder, or erase them.

How did you get it to do video capture?

There's a Bison Cam app in the programs menu that gets installed with the driver, or it's available on AW's site. You set up the location and name of the capture file along with the duration you want to record for. Then you start the recording.

That's how I used to get it to capture video on my M3450, but my M5550 doesn't have a cam, so I can't check it out.

I've got XP, so it might be different...

Try hitting Fn + F4, then check again. That's the toggle on the camera with the m9700.

Huh, I just have the driver installed, no app in the menu.

Thx, I'll check it out...

The driver packages must be different depending on the laptop.

The bisoncam driver for the m9700, 2.6.0.76 doesn't load an application for bisoncam. You can capture video with Windows Movie Maker in the startup menu, or click the link under my computer (Fn + F4 if it's not there) and take/store stills.

The m9750 bisoncam driver is 2.6.0.77, so it might be different.

I'm not sure if the m9750 driver will work with the m9700 camera...
