Cannot use the webcam on my Satellite A300

Hello

I installed Windows 7 Home premium in my laptop (windows Vista there) and since I can't use my webcam.

It does not appear in Device Manager and I have install and uninstall the drivers of many times but whenever I see the message that says that the camera is either disconnected or destroyed and restart the computer or the camera.

Is there a way to fix this?
Thanks in advance...

My laptop is Satellite A300-20W with PSAGCE-09N00DGE model number and the serial number 29353297Q

I have the Satellite A300 too with two hard drives inside. Second I ve installed Win7 32 bit and the webcam works perfectly so I m just really wondering what the problem may be.

You are 100% sure that the webcam works properly with the original Vista recovery image?

  • Cannot use the webcam on my Satellite Pro A200

    I have the Satellite Pro A200 series.

    My warranty (with clips) runs out on August 7. I had probs with my webcam since I bought this laptop two years ago. I keep says it's a matter of 'software' and not covered by the warranty. I did everything what I said to do... reformatted the hard drive three times, etc., etc. In any case... I use only this laptop when I go... I checked the other day and that's the problem, now, I recovered it. It works, I can see on the webcam, but no one can see me.

    I get this message that says "turn on camera"... but there is no way to turn it on and just what I do does not work. Is it not now a HARDWARE problem, with a built-in webcam If the camera does not illuminate? So it seems Staples should look like it. I'm back this week for another chance with them.

    But does anyone have any suggestions?
    Thank you.

    Try this

    * Download driver Chicony Webcam drivers from Toshiba Web site section was updated. If you can't find an updated driver, try a new driver of another model of Toshiba.
    * Install the Service Pack 1 of Vista, or Vista Hotfix KB934374: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/934374 (KB934374 is included in SP1)
    * Update your e-mail software (MSN/Yahoo Messenger, etc...)
    * If you have another program that can use the webcam (e.g. Skype), make sure that they are completely closed and not, sitting in the system tray.
    * Try to close the bar Assistant camera on the left side of the office.
    * To stop the Camera Assistant software from running at startup, run Regedit and delete HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run "Camera Assistant Software".

    If it still does not work, then get an ASP to fix it.

  • Satellite A300-22F - face recognition cannot use the webcam on Vista 64

    Hello everyone,

    I have a big problem with the recognition of face and my Windows Vista operating system tool.

    Yesterday I installed Windows Vista 64 bit on my new laptop Sat. A300-22F as him preinstalled
    version of Windows was only 32 and I've got 4gig of RAM.

    Thus, all the drivers are installed and everything works. The driver for the webcam with the webcam program works, too.
    But when I run the facial recognition tool, an error that the webcam cannot be initialized or that
    the webcam is in use and cannot be used with the program now.

    So, no program is using the webcam. The webcam works with other tools. And in the settings of the tool face
    are the webcam, but always available, without work.

    Someone at - it an idea?

    Thank you.

  • A satellite - cannot use the webcam - in use by another program?

    Sometimes a reboot works but not very often.

    The camera assistance software says "in use by another program.
    How can I find the other program so I can stop it?
    I already rebooted the software nothing works.

    Reg

    Hello

    The webcam software load automatically at the beginning of the windows to start the procedure. The program mentioned is perhaps the assistant webcam software.
    You can disable this automatic startup in msconfig.
    Type in RUN-> msconfig, go to the Startup tab and disable the webcam software.
    This prevents the start software.

    On the other hand, it could be another tool like Skype, MSN messenger or similar

    Thank you for your help!

    Nora

    The webcam is already installed. Central webcam is software and is also already installed. Look at the illustrations in the Quick Start Guide in the list of books below and see that the camera is located on the bezel at the top of the screen has a cover and light. Remove the cover to see if that helps. If you're still having problems, go to this site to help support more-

    Hi GVautour,

    Sorry for the late reply.

    According to the characteristics of the model number of your Acer computer, it seems that your computer does not have a built-in webcam.

    If you use an external device, you can visit the web camera manufacturer's Web site and install the latest driver on your computer.

    If you are unable to find the appropriate link, you can get back to us with the web camera brand and model number.

    Thank you.

  • Cannot use the S-video on Satellite A100-906 Vista port

    I can't switch to s-video, as I installed windows Vista and I do not know why.
    I downloaded all the drivers for Vista, but nothing. When I have my original WXP everything. My win vista is an original version, and I don't know what to do.

    Please can someone help me?
    Please send me the solution?

    First of all, it would be necessary to know what laptop you have.

    Second, you should check the options in the properties of the graphics card that could help to activate the external TV output.

    Also the use of the FN + F5 key combination should help to switch to the external display!

  • Cannot upgrade the BIOS for my Satellite A300

    When I want to update my bios 2.70 victory, there is an error and the program said that it couldn't find the file bios.wph. So I can't update my BIOS.

    Thank you for your help.
    Vehbi Tirnakli M.D.

    What exact error message appears?
    And more importantly, have you unzipped BIOS files, after downloading? If not, do so and try again.

    Depends on the updated version of the BIOS on what operating system you are using. I assume that you installed Windows XP if you are using version 2.70. For Windows Vista, you must use version 1.30.

    Please check the good versions of BIOS.
