I have been able to activate lots of great features on EZ robot except camera tracking.
I have watched the tutorials, loaded and ran stand alone sample examples, but I cannot get any grid to appear, or even take a picture. Nothing shows in the activity box when I try color recognition. I have tried the EZ camera, the web camera on PC. on realtime video. When I try video recording, the button changes but will not respond I when press the stop button. I was able able to take a video when I first installed EZ software, but not since then. I don,t know if Norton is blocking or what. Maybe I have a corrupted file?

The grid, detection marks etc. only shows up on Processed Video not Realtime.
Maybe I don,t understand the correct way to use camera tracking? I observered in the tutorials it shows the Processed Video button engaged. Do I have to record first? It looks like live video in D.J.,s
tutorial. It might be something simple I am missing?

Check through the options to the right of the video and select the tracking you want and set up the configuration for them. Sorry that's a bit of a poor explanation but I need sleep
If you are still struggling I'll post some screen grabs tomorrow to explain it better.
Microsoft Security Essentials (free) or AVG (free or paid depending on options) are both superior to Norton.

When you load the software, there is a box that tells you how to obtain help for a control. It has a large arrow and some wording. It says press the ? button to receive help. Every control has a ? button. On the camera control, press the ? button
There are videos that explain how it works. Some videos may be old, but you'll get the point. We wouldn't be able to make a video every time we release the software. We release new versions of the software with new features every week or so
I loaded lastest EZB version with debug, and it also stated "Insufficient memory".
My system runs Vista, Intel Core 2 Duo T6400 @ 2.00GHZ with 4 GB of RAM.
I have not yet tried stopping some startup programs. I have watched the tutorials many times and was glad to see a possible solution. I may also ask my local computer shop about more RAM.
Thank You community,

I'm starting to see a common factor in all of these "no processed video" issues and that is Windows Vista. Windows Vista was quite possibly the worst OS Microsoft have ever released and it remains full of bugs. Your time and effort would be better suited to upgrading from Vista to 7 or 8, or possibly downgrading to XP. As stated elsewhere, my HP DV9000 running a 2GHz 2 core CPU and 2Gb RAM runs the latest ARC without a problem in Windows 8.
Call me cynical but I fear a local computer shop may only be interested in earning the money to sell you something you do not need.
Your processor certainly is enough. Also 4gb is enough. We have a demo machine that we use often which has less power than your computer... And less RAM
I would highly recommend upgrading to Windows 7. I think Windows 8 might be a little hard on your system - even though it's a very fast OS. The issue with Windows 8 on old hardware is that older hardware processors will not support the function calls.
