I have a USB 2.0 PC Camera (just as it shows on the device manager) that I sent to a friend of mine in California. I bought it a while ago and have used it for the past 2 or so years on my computer. I sent it out to her without the drivers, because I have no clue where I put the CD for them.
There are no markings on the camera indicating a manufacturer, and I can't find anything on google. Windows recognizes the device, but can't locate drivers for it. I imagine I must have the drivers on my computer somewhere as it worked fine for me, but I don't know where I would locate them.
The tag has a few numbers on it.
MAC201 V 1.1
and J423000520
Made in Taiwan.
I'll venture to guess that it's either Compal Electronics or ViMicro or something. Those are a few results I came up with in a google search. I couldn't find any working drivers though.
Here are some pics of the camera (sorry for the quality)

If anyone knows of the manufacturer, model, or anything else, it would be much appreciated. Alternatively, if you know how I can transfer the drivers from my computer to hers (even though I dunno which files would be the drivers) then that would be cool too.
Thanks a lot,
Jay
