Drift alignment - just checking I've done it right

Thats a relief Robert, Ian's post rather overwhelmed me.

Thanks for that link Chris,

I used the K3CCD tools reticle to do the drift alignment, although I do find K3 works when it feels like it, but I'll give that a look.

K3CCD definately works, if you have the licenced version I thin v2.24 or above its very stable.

I have got a licenced version Chris, version 3, but sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't, so I can't rely on it.  Most common fault is I open it up and it says is cannot create a capture window (or words to that effect).

I've had this problem on more than one laptop and using differing cameras.

I use it when it works, but it's very annoying when it doesn't.

Hi,

Ok I had this once let me try to remember what the problem was, I think the USB's need refreshing.

Ok from memory its when you start K3 before plugging in the web cam.

Plug the camera in then start K3 after the camera has installed/started.
