Why does OpenCV give me a black screen?

Solution
OpenCV 2.1 still has a few problems with 64bits OS. You can read this topic on the subject.

Problem
I'm currently trying to use OpenCV (using the Processing library). However, when I try to run any examples (either the Processing ones or the C ones included with OpenCV), I see nothing but black instead of input from the camera. The camera's LED indicator does turn on.. has anyone had the same problem? is my camera somehow incompatible with openCV? It's an Acer Crystal Eye... Thanks,
