Symptoms
The Logitech QuickCam may cause conflict with PST drivers.
Detail
The QuickCam drivers have been known to cause problems with our devices and with many other peripheral devices. If you are experiencing runtime error 10051 "An error occurred while attempting to open the device" and the Logitech QuickCam has ever been used on that computer, the QuickCam may be the cause of the problem.
IMPORTANT: This error may also be caused by attempting to use port communications or the SRBox on a 64-bit machine with an older version of E-Prime.
