Satellite L450D Webcam not working after new installation without recovery

Hi there,
as posted in the thread title I have a problem with the integrated webcam of a customer notebook. Two days ago the operating system of this laptop was damaged by a virus and needed to be re-installed. I tried to install it with the recovery partition, which did not work. After it I tried to re-built it with the dvd I burned from the recovery partition with the same result.
The only thing that worked was a clean install with a windows 7 64 Bit retail dvd and the key printed on the sticker of the laptop. I managed to get everything working again except one part - the webcam.
No driver installation, bios update and re-installation worked to get this part to work.
Did anyone of you know this problem and have a fix for me?
Thanks in advance.
Greetings Saphire
P.S.: One thing shall be also important. When I look into the installed devices manager the driver for the webcam is listed as usb webcam and the manufaturer of it is Microsoft.

Hi
I dont think that this needs to be fixed because I dont think its hardware related issue.
I think there is something wrong with the software on your notebook.
I mean everything worked perfectly until virus has damage the OS. Right?
You said this:
>I tried to install it with the recovery partition, which did not work. After it I tried to re-built it with the dvd I burned from the recovery partition with the same result.
I really wonder why you could not get this working using Recovery disk.
So possibly this is the key to this issue
On the Toshiba European driver page I could find Registry Patch v1.1 For Win 7 64bit
Also webcam driver v 1.1.1.4 is available there
I think the OS is responsible for your issue possibly some patches are applied or similar

  • Satellite A100 - USB not working after XP installation

    Hi Guys
    I am reloading Satellite A100 PSAA9A OCV004 for a friend he has lost the disks so I have loaded a legal copy of XP home everything going well so far but I can't get the USB working any ideas?
    Tnx Mick.

    Hi Mick,
    Have you installed new Service Pack 3 for Windows XP? This is important because it contains many important updates.
    After Service Pack 3 installation you can start with driver installation. Everything you can download on Toshiba website.
    Its also important that you install the chipset driver.

  • Execute Package Task Not Working After New Installation VS2012

    After installing VS2012 Update 4, the execute package task runs the child package out of order.
    The same version of VS is being used as the old computer (same everything, SQL 2012, OS...).  The solution works correctly on machines where VS2012 was installed prior to July 2014.  I've downloaded the BIDS, SSDT.
    Anyone else have the same problem?  I have yet to find anywhere on the internet where someone has reported the same issue.  It has happened on multiple computers since August 2014.

    How to reproduce?
    It is not very likely, but did you try searching MS Connect for this issue?

    My apple wireless keyboard is not working after new batteries installed.

    Do you get a steady green light to say there is a connection.    If not, are the batteries the right way round.   Do you have a monitor to tell the batteries strength. Is there a reading.   Are the batteries good quality ones, Duracell, Energiser or Apple rechargeables.

  • Ciscowork 3.2.1 daemon manager is not working after patch installation

    Hi Team
    Ciscowork 3.2.1 daemon manager is not working after patch installation.
    C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator>net start crmdmgtd
    The CiscoWorks Daemon Manager service is starting.
    The CiscoWorks Daemon Manager service could not be started.
    The service did not report an error.
    More help is available by typing NET HELPMSG 3534.
    Also I checked syslog.log and it is showing below error

    During installation, an user casuser is created with certian security settings and if those are modified\removed, DM will not start.
    Following message will be seen in /log/syslog.log
    Daemon manager anonymous user has not been set up: 00000775
    To solve the issue, run resetcasuser.exe located under /setup.support  to  recreate the settings.
    Make sure casuser account is not locked out. Make sure casuser is a member of casusers group and is set to "password never expires".
    Additionally you can try to make casuser a member of adiministrators group.

    Neena,
    Check the properties of casuser under Start > Settings > Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Computer Management > Local Users and Groups > Users and make sure it is not disabled or locked out.  The only thing checked should be "Password never expires".  Change anything required and reset casuser.

  • Phone not working after infinity installation

    I have just moved my phone and broadband from Sky to Bt and the engineer called this morning to complete the installation. I have 2 phone sockets. When I had broadband originally installed it was before the days of filters so it required a BT engineer visit. As my computer was upstairs the engineer 'back wired' the sockets (apologies if I have the terminology wrong) so the adsl faceplate was fitted to the upstairs wired extension. Today, the Openreach engineer was initially puzzled but said he would be able to install the Infinity faceplate on the upstairs extension as originally fitted. He checked the line was ok, checked the broadband connection and put the faceplate back on the 2 sockets. After he left I tried to make a call via the downstairs socket without success and I assumed that the phone line had not yet been changed back to BT. This afternoon I received an email from BT advising that my phone was now active but the downstairs socket will not work. I am able to make and receive calls on the upstairs extension. I have just spent 40 minutes on the phone to BT, explaining the problem to 4 different people. Each BT employee advised that it would cost £130 for an engineer to revisit my house to correct the fault that they had somehow caused! To say I'm frustrated is an understatement. Has anyone any suggestions how I can resolve the problem. All 4 BT employees did not really understand the problem. I would appreciate any help.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    You cannot use a phone connection for broadband when on Infinity. The only connection that can be used is that which comes from the home hub 3, which is near the Openreach modem.
    You have to use wireless, run an Ethernet cable, or use Powerline adapters.
    You phone should work if it is plugged into the botton socket of the new Infinity master socket.
    There are some useful help pages here, for BT Broadband customers only, on my personal website.

  • Satellite P200 - Webcam stopped working after Vista upgrade

    Since upgrading Vista Home Premium to Vista Ultimate the integrated webcam has not worked. I've re-installed the Camera software whch proceeds to the point of updating driver software. The process fails with the messages "Windows encountered a problem install the driver software for your device". "Windows found driver software for your device but encountered an error while attempting to install it. Chicony USB 2.0 Camera". "The driver installation file for this device is missing a necessary entry. This may be because the INF was written for Windows 95 or later. Contact your hardware vendor".
    The Toshiba download site does not contain drivers for this device. only the Camera Assistant Software. The Chicony Electronics site contains some drivers for cameras, but doesn't describe the cameras and refers to model numbers which don't tally with the Toshiba references. I tried the latest model, but the driver installation completed with no termination messages and the camera still didn't work. Running the installation a second time recognised that something had been installed and proceeded to remove it, again no completion messages. A real class act!
    Can anyone suggest where I might find a solution?

    Hi Syntax,
    I did originally assume that the CAS software included the necessary drivers and have already done pretty much what you suggest about 3 times already. Still I have tried again exactly as you suggest.
    Removed the "Unknown Device" from Device Manager.
    Uninstalled the CAS software.
    Restarted.
    Ran CCleaner.
    Restarted.
    When Vista prompted to install driver for the new hardware, I declined.
    Ran the ToshibaCAS.exe program, which completed successfully.
    On attempting to use the software, the message "Switch on Camera" is displayed.
    Device Manager shows hardware as "Unknown Device".
    Properties show "The drivers for this device are not installed. (Code 28)"
    Re-installing drivers from Device Manager repeats the problem stated in original question.
    Thanks,
    Alan

  • Network card not found after new installation [SOLVED]

    I broke my filesystem on my Asus UL80V series laptop in trying to solve problems related to the latest glibc update, so decided to do a clean re-install. I had an installation disk at hand: 2009.08 with kernel 2.6.30.4-1 (which is supposed to have the module for my ath9k network device). However after a successful installation (including all the files from base-dev), my network device is not recognised:
    dhcpcd: eth0: interface not found or invalid
    although network connectivity (wired and wireless) worked perfectly before the installation attempt.
    This happened yesterday (17th) and I have been scouring the web since trying to find out what the cause of this problem is, without luck.
    I also burned a new installation CD with the latest stable version, but no luck there, either! Got a message at the beginning informing me that the install requires 64 Mb memory, although my laptop has 4 Gb.
    I should say, the device is there and working:
    lspci | grep Net
    gives
    02:00.0 Network controller: Atheros Communications Inc. AR9285 Wireless Network Adapter (PCI-Express) (rev 01)
    I also did
    modprobe ath9k
    just to make sure. No luck.
    Any help will be appreciated.
    thanks

    Argh, ip may not be around in the 2009 image really ;-) .. Use "ifconfig" instead..
    But: I meanwhile cross-checked your ath9k: http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Dri … h9k_driver
    and it does not sound encouraging for the kernel you have there.
    The image is far too old anyway, if you ask me (would be a darn hazzle to get that uptodate I am sure). Pity you get that memory error with the 2011 one. Maybe check forums on that. Sounds very strange, I am not aware of any post I read.
    If you can burn another CD, you can try the recent ISOs as well: http://releng.archlinux.org/isos/
    Beware that the ones from July dont have the AIF setup anymore.

  • Joystick use in a Labview VI not working after an installer is made.

    I have a program that is supposed to take input from a joystick, and output a series of RS-485 signal to control devices.  It works fine when I run it on the computer I am programming on, but when I build an installer and put it onto a computer without Labview (other than what the installer puts in), it does not take input from the joystick anymore.  It also does not seem to be correctly reporting errors related to the joystick (it should throw an error when I choose an invalid joystick index, and with only 1 joystick, it should be index 0, but for some reason, I can put any number in there, and it is not erroring, despite the fact that no joystick exists at that index after it is queried.  Is there some additional installer that I should include when building the installer?
    I am currently using Labview 8.2.
    Thanks 

    My appologies for the delay in replay, but with the holidays and all...
    Anyway, the only DLLs I see in anything that is generated, are NISysInf.dll and customResource0009.dll.  Not really sure why it has such a vague name, but that is what was there.  As for the RS-485, it is via a USB to RS-485 unit which is installed and working with other RS-485 utilizing programs, including other labview programs, and to go with it I have bundled NI-VISA.  Normally it would error if I put it on a comport or joystick that does not exist, but when I put it on a comport with a nonsensical name and joystick index 8, neither seems to complain, and they still do not work correctly with correct values.  The part that does not make sense is that it works on the computer I am writing it on correctly, just when I install it from a built installer does it not work (which makes it a pain to debug when uninstall and restarting multiple times to test an attempt to fix it.
    The other possible information that I can think of that might help was that this program may have been written in Labview 8.0.1, not the current labview 8.2 that I am using (I am editing some code somebody already wrote in our company, so I do not have all of the information about its development.  I'm still rather new to Labview, so I'm not sure how to check if such is so, and if that might be causing the errors.
    So to summarize, what would cause no errors to be thrown, when it obviously is not detecting the com port or joystick correctly, and to work only on the development computer fine and not on a fresh comptuer. 

  • EPrint does not work after new wifi router on Verizon DSL

    I have been using ePrint on my iPod, iPad, and iPhone for a few months without a problem, but recently had to switch to a new wifi router on my Verizon DSL, as my wifi kept turning off and Verizon's solution was an updated wifi router. Since the switch, I cannot ePrint from my mobile devices. I can, after reconfiguration, print from my laptops. The ePrint app still finds the Deskjet 3050a, says "sending to printer", but will not print. The ePrint is turned on. I tried to delete the app and reinstall in hopes that I can start fresh, but it still does not work. I tried to add a new printer, with the email supplied on the ePrint screen on the printer, but nothing.
    Any ideas?

    Hi Honor Student
    Is your printer connected to the new router as it sounds like it is still looking for the old one ?  Maybe  just disconnect it and reconnect it again to your new router and then the ePrint APP should pick it up.
    I work for HP.
    Thanks

    Although I am a HP employee, I am speaking for myself and not for HP.

  • Safari doesn't work after new Installation of Lion

    Hello,
    I installed a new SSD into my MBP mid 2009 and put the HDD into the optibay instead of the Superdrive, after that I installed OSX Lion onto the SSD and used the Migration Assisstent to migrate my old User Folder from the HDD with the newly installed OSX Lion. After the migration, everything went well, except of the following:
    -Safari doesn't work, no website can be loaded, as soon as I run Safari, there is a process running named "Webprocess" which uses 95% of the CPU and makes the MBP heating.
    -VLC Media Player does not work as well
    Any idea anyone?
    thx
    Mohammad

    Another problem is:
    When I start the Dropbox Application, it uses nearly 90% of the CPU as well, so the mac heats up, in a way that it is not possible to use the dropbox application...
    (The Icon of the VLC Media Player  only jumps up and down in the dock, and nothing else happens)
