iSight and PC
Well after be annoyed at the lack of good instructions on how to use an Apple iSight with a PC (Windows XP anyway) i have come up with a solution.
Step One: Download one or of the follownig peices of software. I recomend the 2nd.

Step Two: Install
Step THree: Plug in iSight and cancel out of any "Automated Hard Installations" windows pop ups
Step Four: Launch EyeBall chat. (click preview button)
Step Five: Click Setting Button
Step Six: goto the Video Tab
Step Seven: from the pull down menu select the 1394 Desktop Video Camera
Step Eight: Click Properties
Step Nine: Click "Video Proc Amp" adjust brightness so the image is not washed out
Step Ten: Click "OK" twice.
You are now good to go. You can use AIM or any other windows based chat program. Windows will remember your profile. If you use the other software it gives you a bit more control over the image.
Happy chatting.
