Invalid ADAPTORNAME specified. Type 'imaqhwinfo' for a list of available ADAPTORNAMEs. Image acquisition adaptors may be available as downloadable support packages.
Open Support Package Installer to install additional vendors.

Show me a screenshot of the imaqtool interface. I need to see what video adapters you have present.
>>imaqtool
Use the green and brown frame icon to attach your image. You may find the http://snag.gy web site useful. You can do alt-PrintScreen to copy your active window to the clipboard, then paste it into snag.gy and paste the URL snag.gy gives you back here so we can see the image.

Try this:
>> supportPackageInstaller
Tell it to Install from Internet. Then from the drop down list, click Show Installed. It should look like this:
Note the packages listed in the left hand panel. Post your screenshot.
If those are there, then post an image of Device Manager (if you have Windows) with the Imaging Devices category expanded.

Did you open the Support Package Installer and install the camera package?

What support package did you install? What camera/framegrabber do you have?
