The old version is on the support site, and other webcam software from Dell is on the support site. We're not looking to steel anything, just trying to get the updated version of the software we already have and some people already have the updated versions.

After installing you can go to the question mark in the application (top, right) and run Check For Software Update. That updates you to 1.40.09.

Everything seems to work better than ever with this software package.
Is that for a 10V? Didn't think 10V's were eligible for Win7 upgrades. Anywho, just got new disk from Dell VerA01 with Webcam Central ver 1.02.06 that finally works with Win 7.

I presume he means that he ordered something like the Home Premium Edition Upgrade from Dell.

As you say, they won't supply the 'Starter Edition' (not that anyone would want that one anyway) on it's own... only with a new Mini.

I did try and get one, thinking that it might be a good way to get the latest additional CD's & DVD's as well, but they wouldn't have it!


Mini 10v - Product (RED) - BIOS A06 - Ubuntu 11.04 - 2GB RAM - 60 GB OCZ Vertex SSD - Bluetooth - Intel 6205 Wi-Fi - WWAN
