In Windows XP, I could to go My Computer and the webcam would show up there.
Double-Clicking it would "open" the camera in Explorer - the view looked
similar to the filmstrip mode of a pictures folder, but with a live camera
view on top and a list of taken pictures on the bottom, plus a button to
take pictures.

Wind Windows 7, on my X120e, I don't see the camera in My Computer. I opened
the Scanner and Camera Wizard and it doesn't show up there either. Pressing
Fn-F6 opens ThinkVantage Communications where I can see the current view
from the camera. There's a button labeled Take Snapshot. The first time I
clicked that, the whole window went away. I went looking in my Pictures
folder to see if it had shown up there, but I didn't see it. So, I hit Fn-F6
again, and now the Take Snapshot button is disabled.

In Device Manager, pulling up the webcam and looking at Driver Details shows
some files in C:\Windows\twain_32, but it seems Scanner and Camera Wizard
can't find them.

Any idea how to take a snapshot from this webcam?
