Hey guys.

Last night my brother and I took apart an iMac G5 that had a dead power supply. Our goal was to extract the hard drive, which we did just fine.

I saw how the iSight camera was connected via what looked to be a firewire connection. It looks exactly like the attachment.

Luckily I have a FW400 port on my blackbook, and I also had the right mini to full size cable.

I plugged it in, and the little green light flashed. IT'S ALIIIVEE.

My question now is what do I have to do to get this thing interfaced (software-wise) to my computer? I've downloaded macam with no success.

Any help or ideas are appreciated. Thanks.
