    hey guys
    i have a sony vaio SZ bought last week, bought it downgraded to XP Pro. since i got it, my webcam never worked properly. always froze on WLM video call. after countless attempts at fixing it and talking to sony support guys, reinstalling drivers and sony software, i managed to get it to work for a while without freezing, anywhere between 5-30min. but it still freezes sometimes. i closed my firewall and rebooted, and disabled windows firewall n still it happend so its not a firewall problem.. and now, when it freezes and my partner invites me again, and i accept, i get a blue screen (blue screen of death, and my computer restarts....thats quite worrying. its a brand new laptop and i want it to work perfectly :( please help!
