built-in webcam not detected on the XPS 17 (L702X)

8.1 Windows 64-bit, the built-in webcam does not appear in Device Manager. Any software that uses webcams does not detect the webcam. He worked until recently. Drivers & downloads in support Dell offers no help because no driver for the webcam. It seems to be a bit stupid because he recommended me to install some things already installed. Or even a few years nVidia graphics card controllers! 'My Dell' application does not offer the posibility to test the webcam, just the microphone. Therefore, none of the solutions I've read here are of no help.

fjmv,

Recently install you / reinstall the operating system? If so, have you installed the Dell System Software (if applicable) and the first chipset drivers? If this is not the case, the rest of the drivers will not install. How to download and install drivers in the correct order

Windows 7/8 is supposed to provide the drivers of webcam for most Dell computers. If you system needs webcam drivers, go in driver downloads & enter your service tag, and then select your operating system. If your system is in need of drivers for the webcam, they will appear under entry.

  • Built in webcam not found on the computer.

    Hi, back for a while that I had to have it replaced my computer screen. After that it has been replaced, my webcam not working not. He said that there is no webcam. Before that the screen had to be replaced, it works beautifully. What could be the problem and how to fix this? Thank you for your help.

    Hi Randalynf,

    Please answer a few questions to refine the question.

    1. What is the brand and model of the computer?

    2. When you say "screen is replaced", hear you screen has replaced for a new one? What was the exact problem with the monitor?

    3. what happens when you try to access with the Webcam software that came with the computer?

    This problem normally occurs when there is no problem with the driver for the Webcam device software.

    I suggest you follow the steps below to see if that helps.

    Method 1:

    Step 1: Find material webcam

    Take a quick moment to visually inspect the top of the screen of your computer. Look closely, you should see a small lens at the top in the Center, if your computer is equipped with a webcam. Some models do not come with a webcam and the area where the webcam would normally be resident is replaced by a small plastic cap.
    Often, there are small holes near the top center of your screen. These holes are for the microphone or other sensors and do not contain any webcam.
    • If your computer lacks a built-in webcam, you must use an external USB webcam.
    • If your computer is equipped with a built-in webcam and you can't use it, go to step 2

    Step 2: Find and use the Webcam software that came with your computer

    Try to access the webcam that is preinstalled on your computer.

    If you can't find and open the webcam for your computer software, then go to the next step.
    If you have found the software of the webcam and it opens and you see a picture, then finished. Your webcam works.
    If you found webcam software and it opens, but you can't see the video in the main display window, restart the computer and try again.
    If the problem persists, use the troubleshooting section "video does not appear in the webcam software.
    Method 2:

    If you are able to find the Webcam on your screen and you cannot view the video using the software installed, you may need to update the Webcam drivers for more later.
    Read the sections "If you have problems with your webcam' in the article and check the results.»

    Hope this information helps. Response with status so that we can help you.

  • HARD drive not detected in the BIOS on Satellite A215

    Hi all

    I could use to solve this problem: bought this laptop computer without a disk of the auction. Installed again 2.5 inches HDD SATA 250 GB, which was not detected in BIOS and also not detected when using a MS Vista installation disc. When trying to install Vista, get a message no drive seen HARD and demand for pilots.
    I flashed the BIOS with version (2.0) of lates without problem through the CD drive, but still no detection of HARD drive.

    The drive partitioned and formatted NTFS without problem by using another computer and USB SATA adapter using the command line method. Just for additional verification, I went on the new HARD drive to an extra 2.5 "SATA HDD used for backups, but that the HARD drive has also not been detected.

    It is not a "compatibility" option in CMOS to select SATA or Auto, etc..
    There is not a second HDD, so this isn't a question of slave/primary. There are no jumpers on the new HARD drive.
    Set the CMOS settings 'by default' does not solve the problem.

    The SATA connectors on the HARD drive and laptop computer are in perfect condition.
    Also, the drive is not detected on the laptop connected via USB to SATA Adapter, but of course there is no OS installed to support this connection.

    In any case, I just can't come up with any more ideas to try.
    Any suggestions would be really appreciated!

    Best,
    Glenn

    Hello

    The BIOS should recognize the HARD disk even if the SATA mode would be compatible or AHCI. This should not affect the recognition of the HARD drive.

    You said that you have tested the condition of the HARD drive and it's ok, so I guess that it s no disc HARD question.
    Hmm, you could try to format the HARD drive once more and then connect the portable computer HARD drive.

    Another idea: Remove/Disconnect the CD/DVD drive and then connect the HARD drive to the SATA connector.
    If it does not, then I recommend to test another HARD drive, otherwise if the new HARD drive would not work, then a SATA controller may be defective.

    If I understand the question, digital mp3 player is not detected on the computer. Please let me know if this is not correct.

    Before I continue with the troubleshooting steps I may need a few more details to better understand the issue.
    1. what operating system do you use?
    2. do you receive any error messages?
    3. are you having the same problem with other USB devices?
    4. have you tried plugging the machine into the other USB Ports?
    5. did you of recent changes on the computer before this problem?
    6. What is the serial number and model of the MP3 player?
    Method 1:
    We will first try to plug in other USB Ports and on another computer to make sure that there is no problem with the digital mp3 player.
    Method 2:
    If the first method does not resolve the problem, run the hardware and devices Troubleshooter and check if it helps.

  • HP X 360: hardware virtualization enabled in the BIOS but not detected by the installation of Intelhaxm.exe

    Hi all

    I'm trying to get Android studio works on my 360. Everything is fine until you try to run virtual device/emulator.

    This does not work because the Virtual Machine is required. When I looked in the BIOS I was surprised to see this small handbook has the functionality that has been disabled.

  • Video card GeForce GTX 660 not detected by the motherboard Windows 7

    I recently upgraded my PC with an Asus z97 - a motherboard and processor Intel i5 4. After the reinstallation of Windows 7, I was able to get a signal from my video card 660 geforce gtx for a few hours. After Windows install several updates, however, I am unable to use my video card without receiving an ENTRY NOT FOUND both of my monitors. My video card is also not appearing in Manager devices, or BIOS and use rather Intel HD Graphics. Cause of the undetected video card, I am unable to install the latest drivers for my card and I have no idea what to try next. I also made sure my current diet provides enough power for the card. Is powered without a doubt the map because the fans spinning, I'm positive that I've attached all required power cables, and the card is inserted completely into the motherboard. I tried all PCI-E ports in my motherboard, but it continues to not display. I tried to install the drivers manually, but the video card should be detected before this is possible. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    My specs:

    ASUS card mother Z97 - A

    Videocard GeForce GTX 660

    Intel i5 processor 4

    8 GB RAM

    700W ATX power supply

    I should point out that I have tried almost every technical troubleshooting that I have met, with the exception of disabling Intel HD Graphics. I fear that if, due to there not being any trace of my video card in the BIOS and Device Manager, if I disable this will also lose signal from the motherboard of DVI and HDMI, ports that are what I currently use.

    Hello

    As the graphics card is not detected by the motherboard, you will need to contact Asus for more help on this issue. You will need to check if the graphics card is detected in the BIOS or not, if not then contact the computer manufacturer is the right point of support.
