Go to the folder or whatever has the application file in. Right click on the file, click properties. Click Compatibility, then check the box next to "Run this program in compatibility mode for:" then I selected Windows 2000 as I had some trouble with 98. Let me know if it works.

@1011Ev: I'm using Win 7. Does your solution still apply?

@legoguy: I'm using the LQCP9000, trying to film at 1280x720. I've already tried re-downloading the program, but I will try filming in a slightly lower quality.

Nothing I try does anything. I've tried changing the compatability, nothing. Also filming in a lower resoultion, still nothing. I always get that message when I hit the "Capture" button:

I've tried numerous times of deleting all the files and downloading them again. I can't think of anything that I could have downloaded that would affect my .avi files except getting the DivX codec so I could play .avi files encoded with DivX. Would that affect it?

END - If the site doesn't even load, then you may have a computer problem. You might try running a scan to make sure you don't have a virus. Also, have you tried downloading the program again?
Here's another person who had your problem (error 2.01), and was given some suggestions. It might help.

Mighty - Check where your pictures are are being sent to, and make sure it is a real place that you have admission to enter. Also, check this.

Hope this might help you two. If not, just try doing searches on the web to see if you can find an answer.

Behind the Scenes

My problems seem to be fixed.
a.my guese is it was an older helium forg site that was recently deleted. I found the new one via google search.
b.I redownloaded it from the new site and it worked.

As Helium Frog makes the .avi file as it goes along it needs continuous access to it at all times.
If other programs are accessing it you will get problems.
Don't have a media player playing it. Also some media players tie up directory access and don't release it propertly.
Don't rename the file whilst working or move it.
Some media players alter the file header (I don't know why but they do). Helium Frog checks the file header to make sure it was created by it, so this can cause issues.
Don't edit the file or remove frames. Some editors don't build the index at the end of the file correctly or completely remove it.

Yessiree it does Mighty. I do the same.
It may not be able to retrieve your lost animation but it might help prevent it from happening in the future.
