I have a TrackerPod and Logitech QuickCam 4000. I can add the camera and see an image.
On the "PTZ" tab I see my TrackerPod in the drop-down and select it. When I click the "Use PTZ" check-box, I get the following error:
Opening Tilt/Pan Device for Logitech QuickCam Pro 4000-1 failed
I'm using Vista and am logged in as administrator.
This is because of a bug in vista UAC. Here's how to configure UAC so it runs without bugging you every 5 seconds
UAC should be running.
Click Start and click Run.
Type gpedit.msc and click OK.
This will open the Group Policy Editor.
Browse to Computer Configuration | Windows Settings | Security Settings | Local Policies | Security Options.
In the right windows find this
Behavior of the elevation prompt for administrators in Admin Approval Mode
right click and select elevate without prompting
As long as you run the program as an administrator, it should work

For whatever reason UAC must be turned on. If it's completely disabled you'll get the message you mentioned
