100% CPU Using webcam in messenger. by ChromeX on 05-26-2008 at 06:40 PM

Hello guys, is that normal that when i use my webcam in live messenger 8.5 my CPU goes up to 100%? I checked and msnmsgr.exe uses about 85% of cpu itself. Is that a sort of bug?

nope, not a bug. I regularly get at least 50% cpu too. All I can recommend is lowering the size of the video as it appears to you (right click it, Size>medium or small)

ok thank you. It's so sad that i can't use it at maximum size while listening to the music. perhaps a dual core can solve that problem? Thanks
