Skype problem

[musket129]

Looking for help with skype on my PCG-FR415M

every time I make or receive a call, the system hangs, needs a reboot.
I have checked the settings and they are ok. No conflicts show on the system and I have the latest version of all my drivers and skype. Any help appreciated

musket129,

Welcome to ClubVaio :smileygrin:

Could you check if the videocamera drivers are correctly installed, because this is the main cause of conflict with Skype.

Take a look in the device manager.

It seems there are a few people experiencing similar problems.
I assume you have uninstalled / reinstalled skype or even gone to an older version?

I haven't found any definate fixes as the skype support apparently just tell people to reinstall etc.

Edit: People running p2p software have also had problems with system freezes.

All drivers are correctly installed, Skype hangs the system wether i'm using the video or just a voice call. Camera and voice work in yahoo and MSN, only skype has the problem, and I have installed and re-installed this several times.
