Dell Integrated Webcam

I have a Dell 1720 with an integrated webcam. It has been working great until today. My computer can't detect the camera and I have already tried reinstalling the drivers. The blue indicator light is also not coming on like it used to. Anyone have a suggestion?

The problem the entire time for me wasn't the microdia-git module it was the fact that my user wasn't added to the video group. I also figured out that my webcam worked perfectly with the uvcvideo module and oddly enough not the microdia-git module. I apologize for the "n00bness" and appreciate the help.

Creative Integrated Webcam

Hi all,
I have?a Dell?Studio XPS 640 notebook with Creative integrated webcam.
I changed OS to 7 (64 bit) and now webcam dosen't work correctly.
I can use it in Internet (Yahoo Messenger) but when?I test it in windows?by Dell program (Webcam Manager), for example when I want take a picture by webcam, it dosn't work and says install webcam driver first!
In Vista, it works good, but?I have this problem in Windows 7.
I?couldn't found any driver in Creative website, because?I don't know my webcam model.
Can any one help me pls?
Thanks,
Nima

If you simply enter your service tag on the Dell site, you will be able to access your model and its drivers. If there is a standalone driver for Vista, download it. Right click the file you download and choose properties. Then under compatibility, choose Vista Sp or Vista Sp2 and then choose apply and ok. Then double click the file and it should install and run the driver installation successfully. Been there and done that, when I bought my wife a new laptop, and formatted it right away with Windows 7.

Satellite P300D-110 integrated webcam is not functioning properly.

Hello everyone,
as the title says, the integrated webcam of my Toshiba Satellite P300D-110 is not functioning properly. Allow me to explain. Using the Camera Assistance Software I can take photo's and record music. If I try to record a video the preview screen turns up black and the end result tuns out black aswell, completely black.
Whenever I try to use my camera with applications such as MSN Live Messenger, Skype or at community websites using Firefox, Internet Explorer or Safari the application in question crashes.
*How did this happen?*
You tell me. This is how it went;
* Day 1: I've started up my laptop and looked at my fresh and clean install of windows vista home premium. I tried out my webcam using the webcam assistance software and it worked like a charm.
* Day 2: Once again I boot up my laptop and try to start my webcam only to find out that it no longer functions.
To give a quick summary of the thread;
* Using Camera Assistance Software provided by Toshiba I can take pictures.
* Using Camera Assistance Software provided by Toshiba I can record sound.
* Using Camera Assistance Software provided by Toshiba I can _*NOT*_ record or preview a video.
* I can not start my camera using any other application such as but not limited to; MSN Live Messenger, Skype, Mozilla Firefox, Internet Explorer and Safar.
* I have downloaded and isntalled the latest drivers from the Toshiba website.
* My laptop is about a week old.
I'm not sure what more I can do, all I want is for the webcam to work, if anyone can help me out please do so.
And if possible WITHOUT having to reinstall Windows Vista Home Premium.
I haven't even used it and wouldn't want to make that a solution for all the problems that might occur in the future.
Sincerely,
a sad customer.

Using Camera Assistance Software provided by Toshiba I can NOT record or preview a video.
Can you please describe the steps how you try to do this? I must ask you this because it runs well on my notebook. When the recording is finished player opens and you can see recorded movie. It is avi format and at the top of this player you can see the path where the movie is saved.
Most strange thing for me is that you cannot use it with Skype. Ok for MSN is not the perfect but there is absolutely no problem with Skype. Check the settings and it must work somehow.

Where can I find the integrated webcam for my HP G62t-350 Notebook PC?

Just like the title asks, where can I find the integrated webcam for my HP G62t-350 Notebook PC? I have what looks like a rectangle in the top center of the screen/lid, in the bevel, but I'm not sure of how to get it to work, or if it's even able to work! I've seen pics of where there is a gray circle or dot in the middle of that rectangle, but I'm not able to see if I have one or not. Would someone please help me out here?

X220 Integrated Webcam

Hi all,
I have weird issue with my Lenovo x220 integrated webcam.
Previously my integrated webcam used to appear as a device under the Printers and Devices, and this also used to get presented through to a windows 7 VM which I run on the x220 tablet using VMware Workstation.
Somewhere down the line (I am not sure exactly when) after numerous system updates etc, the integrated webcam stop appearing under Printers and Devices...and no longer gets passed through to the VM.
The webcam itself works fine on the host and is visible under device manager and can be configured using Fn + F6.
Not sure what made it stop working with vmware workstation, but any insite will be much appreciated.
Cheers
KK

Hi, Maryd1621
What exactly happens when you attempt to use the integrated camera? Which programs have you tried using the camera with? As for the driver, click here for the camera driver for Windows 7, Vista, and XP. If you are using Windows 8, there is not an updated driver on the website, but the default driver built in to the machine should work fine.
Hope it helps,
Adam

Integrated Webcam/Mic not detected after re-instal/recovery of windows 7

HP Pavilion dv7, Product number: A6X02UA#ABA
So... After recovering windows and installing the minimum recovery image (No extra junk or files) I have a squeaky clean computer with the bare minimum on it. Everything is working great, Until I installed Skype and found I have no integrated webcam, or mic anymore. In the Device Manager, There is no imaging devices. It also says ALL drivers installed are up to date.
I have read everyone’s answer that "if its not in the device manager, its a hardware problem i.e. the short cable that comes unplugged behind the screen" But it is impossible... or at least 99.9% improbable. As I used Skype successfully prior to the reinstall of windows 7, and did not move the computer, close/open the screen, unplug, or even sneeze on this thing since last using the camera and mic. The only thing that has changed was the windows recovery. So far everything else works great. Even the Biometrics device. Why not the cam or mic?

Hello Nostopin,
I'll posted the link as an example of how to find a hardware ID in general.
However if you cannot find the webcam in the device manager which sounds strange to me if it was working correctly before, then there is no way to install drivers for it because windows does not recognise the hardware.
Believe me that I would like to give you a working driver but I cannot give you one simply because I have no hardware ID.
As far as I know there are three options now.
1 The hardware is broken
2 You didn't see the hardware ID (Which I doubt after your story.)
3 this video http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c02452221&lc=en&cc=us&dlc=en#N70
In my opinon there are no other options with the information I currently have.

Looking for Z61M replacement screen/shell with integrated webcam!

I recently acquired a z61m thinkpad without an integrated webcam. I'd like to convert it to a screen/shell that has the integrated webcam. Has anyone managed to perform this conversion? I searched but no dice (probably bad search phrase)! I currently have the WSXGA+ which can do a resolution of 1680x1050. I'd like to be able to increase my real-estate at the same time by ramping up to a WUXGA which I see can do 1920x1200: http://www.screenaid.com/ibm-lenovo-laptop-screens-m-8.html?resolution_id=16 Has anyone attempted this sort of conversion before? Was it successful? Was it expensive? Tia, akk.

Starting the process...

The cable to my integrated webcam/mic broke

I posted a problem about my integrated webcam/mic not working a few months ago. I was looking for the manul so i could take it apart and look at the cable to make sure it was pluged in. I didn't have time to do this until today. When i did I found that one of the wires (the black one) that connect the webcam/mic were broken, I'm guessing this got broken when my fan was relpaced. I am wondering what this wire/connection is called and if it would be cheaper to buy a new one and install it or if I should just buy an external mic and webcam? The pictures of the wire and the link to my original post is below: http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-Hardware/Hardware-problem-with-integrated-mic-and-webcam/td-p/5094095
