most people claim the camera handles auto adjusts alot better. if thats the case, i could definately see how a simple software tweak could make a worlds difference in hardware integration.
This is not a software tweak, or at least not a relevant software tweak. It's a different direct3D driver. Nothing changes about the camera software, which is what would have to change to fix the problems with the camera's exposuring.

We aren't talking about video here. We're talking about single-frame photographic captures, and the issue is not with image processing but camera control. The Direct3D driver might possibly affect processing, but it would not affect camera control. The camera software affects that.
