SYMPTOMS
In Windows Vista, the preview window thatdisplays video from a camera device no longer works after you wake the computer from sleep. The preview window may stop responding. For example, this problem may occur if you preview the video from the camera by using a program such as Windows Live Messenger, and then you put the computer put to sleep while the video is still playing.
This problem occurs if the computer is configured not to require a password when the computer wakes up.
