This driver is edited by me very slightly from the USB-WEBCAM.exe one from Gericom already on the site to make it work with the 301x.
To Install (How I made it work):
Extract driver to empty folder,
Unplug camera,
Uninstall any drivers you may have installed if you can, although this shouldnt cause an issue.
Run Setup.exe
Plug In Camera,
Follow driver install prompts, clicking yes and continue where required.
Enjoy, hope it works for you.
Tested by me on Windows XP - worked like a dream.
