Webcam is not working in Hp DV6770eb

Hi,
My built in webcam in Hp DV6770eb is not working. Until yesterday it was working fine. My OS is Windows 7. When i found that it is not working then I had downloaded BIAS driver from the Hp site and installed it. After restarting webcam starts working again. But today again it is not working again. between yesterday and today I had just put my computer in sleep. I did not installed any software or driver. In Hp site there is no driver available for the webcam for my model. Please suggest what i can do now.
thanks

When you get the message if an other program use still the camera.
So try to disable the webcam software and other messenger programs in msconfig.
Then reboot the notebook and if you want to use the webcam software you have to start the webcam software firstly.

Satellite U400 - the webcam does not work anymore

Hello guys here is my sudden probloema!
About a year ago I purchased a laptop
TOSHIBA - Satellite U400
with s.o. WinVista 32bit and with integrated webcam chicony etc. ....
For a year, everything worked correctly, but for some days now, the webcam does not work anymore.
As soon as I try to open it, a message of management software cam that says "Webcam driver open fail, please restart or computer room"
I tried to do it all: aggioronato and downloaded the drivers from toshiba, uninstalled the program and re installed the webcam ....! updated bios notebook ....! useless!
the strange thing .. well that going into device manager ... the webcam is not there ....! but if the launch seems to open just then check quell caz ... Warning!!
Gan you help me?
Graziee

Are you familiar and comfortable with LINUX LIVE bootable discs to load an alternative operating system with unobtrusive but extensive Toshiba device support so you can determine if your webcam hardware is ruined or if the problem is software and possibly solved reinstalling Windows ?
At this point, you're pondering less time consuming but more expensive choices such as buying another web cam, or another computer and you might be temporarily borrowing someone else's web cam / using a non preferred spare web cam that isn't optimal for your needs.
Continuously downloading software, registry cleaners, and repeatedly reinstalling drivers will eventually ruin your Windows installation and consume more time than you've wasted so far and still doesn't guarantee to fix your malfunction.

Satellite Pro M30 Win 7 - webcam does not work on msn messenger

Hi all
I have a Satellite Pro M30 Modell Nr.: PSM35E and have just changed to Windows 7. But the Nvidia Card NVIDIA GeForceTM FX Go5200 Grafik mit 64 MB RAM does not work properly.
I could find a driver from Vista and installed it, have Aero pics on the desktop, but my webcam does not work on msn messenger and this is the only way for me to see my family.
Can someone help me?
Thanks for your help

Hi
Im a little bit confused; do you have some problems with the graphic card or with the webcam?
I assume you are speaking about external webcam connected to the USB port? Right?
What happens if you connect the webcam to the notebook? Can Win 7 recognize the connected device? Did you install additional drivers for this webcam?
In most cases its necessary to do that because I think its not plug & play device.

Microsof VX 3000 or 6000 Webcam does not work with Lync 2013 under Windows 8.1

Hi,
The problem is that i cannot use the Microsoft VX-3000 or VX-6000 with Lync 2013 under Windows 8.1.
If i go in settings under Video i can see the preview from the webcam just fine, so it works there no problem.
Wenn i try to enable my camera in a conference it does not work, i get an error: Your video cannot be started.
Now, there are no Windows 8.1 drivers for the Webcam so i installed the latest Windows 7 drivers. Because of that this webcam does not work with apps, that is fine i understand the driver problem and the way the new apps work.
But this Webcam works with skype under Windows 8.1 and it works with Lync 2010 client.
The same Webcam works just fine with Lync 2013 under Windows 7.
Is there anything i could do so that i get this Webcam to work with Lync 2013 desktop client under Windows 8.1?
Thanks

Hi,
According to your description, it may be caused by driver.
You can try to install the latest version of Display Driver to fix the display issue.
Since there is no driver for Windows 8.1, I suggest you wait for updating.
You can also post a case on Windows 8 forum, thank you for your understanding:

Webcam is not working even after I reinstall the system software

My webcam is not working even after I reinstall the system software.
My questions are follows:
Should I bring it to repair or get a external webcam?
At approximately how much would be cost for repair?
Which webcam I should get?
Thank you very much!
Tian

Update, I fixed it although it feels more like a workaround. I had to enable the extension in extension manager. That still left a blank panel, but once I closed and reopened the panel I was prompted to login. Seems that closing and reopening the panel is the fix once it is enabled.

USB webcam microphone not working with Starcraft 2 voice chat

=USB webcam microphone not working with Starcraft 2 voice chat?Windows 7, X-fi Fatalty Pro
I have a webcam with ?a built in microphone (Ps3 eye). ?It is connected by USB. ?The drivers are the CL-Eye drivers; a third party driver set since Sony does not directly support the eye for PC.
in the windows audio device management, the microphone appears as normal and is set as the default device. ?I can use the windows sound recorder to record me speaking just fine. ?However if I use any other applications it doesn't seem to work at all. ?I can select the device as the default recording device in Starcraft 2 as well as Teamspeak 3 but no sound is detected. ?The USB microphone does not show up as a selectable device in recording options in my Creative Control Panel. ?Disabling the default creative microphone does nothing.
I think the problem is in that windows can directly detect the microphone and so software that uses the windows audio device manager works fine, but anything that talks directly with my sound card software does not properly detect the microphone. ?Basically, I can select the device as a default device but it does not work.
Any thoughts on this or am I SOL and have to find myself a shiny new headset?

I had the same problem. You need to check the device index of your USB mic.
In my case. I'm on a Mac OSX 10.6 system. I had four devices cataloged. With the last one being the USB mic.
Then set like so in your AS code audioPub.microphoneManager.micIndex = 3;
Remember, that the indexing is 0 based.
The sound framework make the assumption that the index is 0.
Hope that helps.

My satellite a300-mt1 webcam is not working

my Satellite A300-MT1 builtin webcam is not working , and the camera is not listed in the Device Manager so i can't update the driver. I am running Vista Home , where can i find the webcam driver? I understand it is a Chicony product, thanks for the help. Alex Hauber

That doesn't appear to be a US model, and this is the forums for Toshiba USA. You may want to contact Toshiba in your region. However, if it was a US model, I'd suggest you look at this article.

My webcam is not working on skype or facetime, it says cannot find.

Can someone help me figure out why my webcam is not working or able to be discovered when im using skype or facetime or at all since i downloaded Lion?

I'm never really a nick-picker about internet writing, but I couldn't even understand what you said until the third time I read it through.
Anyways, back to the subject. It may be because a lot of those websites are designed for Windows computers, and do not accept the Mac OS, just like how certain MSN Messengers designed for Apple cannot communicate with Windows computers through webcam, but can with other Apple computers.

Lenovo T430 - VMware Player - Windows 7 - webcam is not working

Hi,
I have Windows7 and VMware PLayer.
Webcam is working fine on my Host - it is recognized as ThinkVantage Virtual Camera.
On WMware player webcam is not recognized.
I have tried such drivers on VMware player:
g1c814ww.exe - installed - but webcam is not working
grcu07ww.exe - error message on vmware: Not Supported
Saying honestly I need such driver (make a copy from my host): ThinkVantage Virtual camera
But I need *.INF files. Unfortunately on my Host system I have found only *.SYS files for these driver.
Does anybody know how to enable Integrated camera on WMware player?
Regards
Pawel

Hi Manish,
I've done this several times with Win 7 Pro. IIRC the procedure is to not try to activate during installation. Run the full install without a key. Reboot and attempt to activate. If that fails there should be a link or phone number offered that you can call for phone activation.
Here in the US anyway the calling the number gets you an automated activation process.

Webcam is not working on skype with Ubuntu 12.04

I posted a week ago that I had solved the problem by downloading Skype 4.0 for Linux. However it turns out I spoke too soon. The video just freezes in Skype, though it is fine in Cheese, the Ubuntu webcam app. So I'm still high and dry and have to resort to booting Windows, darn it. I am running 64 bit Xubuntu 12.04 on an AMD quadcore system.

bash -c 'LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libv4l/v4l1compat.so skype'64 Bit
bash -c 'LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib32/libv4l/v4l1compat.so skype'
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Webcam/Troubleshooting Make a launcher and try either of the above. Below may help you.Copy and paste the line below into the Terminal and press Enter.sudo gedit /usr/local/bin/skypeThis will open your editor with a blank text file, copy and paste the following lines into your blank text file.Use lines below for x86(32bit)#!/bin/bash
LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libv4l/v4l1compat.so /usr/bin/skype Use lines below for x64(64bit)#!/bin/bash
LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib32/libv4l/v4l1compat.so /usr/bin/skypeSave the file and close it.Now to make the file executable, copy and paste the following line into Terminal.sudo chmod a+x /usr/local/bin/skypePress Enter and close the Terminal, start Skype and webcam works.Now your webcam is working you can optionally (to improve the quality of your webcam picture), install v4l2ucp(video for linux 2 universal control panel) from the Software Manager.Type "v4l2ucp" in the search box and then select it.After installation go toMenu> Preferences > Video4Linux Control PanelThis will allow you to adjust the Contrast, Gamma, Auto Gain and Sharpness of your video. Simply click "Preview" and adjust the sliders to suit your requirements.If your webcam has a built-in microphone, to set it to default for use with Skype, go toMenu> Preferences > SoundClick on the input tab and select your webcam microphone from the choices listed for input devices.(Make sure microphone volume is not muted).As an alternative if the above fix does not work try using the lines below instead.Use lines below for x86(32bit)#!/bin/bash

Hi @LynnFlores ,
Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums and Welcome. Thank you so much for all the steps you have taken to resolve. Very helpful. I have looked into your issue about your HP Pavilion TouchSmart 14-b164tu Sleekbook and issues with the Touchscreen after an update with Windows 8.1. Here is a document on how to troubleshoot this Touchscreen with Windows 8.1.
Please start at the top and work your way down. As they do seem silly but we need to know if something does not finish correctly.
Please note remove any and all USB devices. Disconnect all non-essential devices, as these could cause some issues.
Listed on the page shows you about a Touchscreen driver that is available. If you go into the Device manager and look under Human Interface Devices. Do you see the driver listed there?
If no, do you see something listed under other devices?
If touch functionality still does not appear to be working correctly, follow the steps listed in the document to calibrate the screen.
I hope something here helps.
Thanks.

Re: Qosmio X300 - Webcam is not working

Hi there,
First of all, my apologies if this issue has already been discussed and solved in another thread - I tried searching this forum for "webcam" but didn't get any results.
Right, my laptop model is: Qosmio X300-11S PQX32E-00M00LEN and am currently running Windows 7 64-bit Home Premium edition.
I while go I noticed my webcam wasn't working (yes, it used to work once upon time). When I launch the 'Camera Assistant Software' I get the following message " Webcam is either disabled or has failed. Please check your webcam settings."
I tried downloading the driver and reinstall it and the device manager indicates no errors.
Anyhow, yesterday (for some other reasons) I decided to reformat and do a fresh installation of Windows 7 64-bit Home Premium edition. I have installed all relevant drivers from Toshiba website this morning and, still webcam not functioning.
I would appreciate any input.
Thanks in advance.

> Anyhow, yesterday (for some other reasons) I decided to reformat and do a fresh installation of Windows 7 64-bit Home Premium edition. I have installed all relevant drivers from Toshiba website this morning and, still webcam not functioning.
Im wondering why you dont try to recover the notebook using the Toshiba HDD recovery or the recovery disks?
I mean, all drivers and everything else is preinstalled on the Toshiba image and setting the notebook back to factory settings, should help to get the webcam working.
