HP 2709M 27 "monitor - Webcam issue

HP bought 2709 m 27 '' LCD monitor with HP Pav. Elite HPE - 137c Desktop on 14/04/10 the Club of Sam.

On the front, the upper left corner of the monitor, about 2 "down and 1/2" in, there is what appears to be a lens of the webcam.  My monitor has been sold as having a webcam, but have been unable to activate Skype or messaging, called HP.  After talk with 2 technicians, 1 supervisor, 1 sales person, a reference to information client and reading information/features of the HP Web site, nobody knows yet what it is, as far as the model presented on their website does not show the hole in the lens.  Is anyone out there know what it is?

The point is an ambient light sensor. It is normally off. You can activate it by pressing the Menu button on the monitor, select management, select sensor of ambient light and turn it on. In a dark room, the screen brightness will be reduced.

  • Monitor the issue after Windows update

    I installed the Windows updates today, and after installing and restarting, the saturation of the color on my monitor is out of line. There is intense color saturation and it made all my files photo as well.

    Running windows 7 and a HP w2338h monitor.

    Thanks for any help on this

    fifthboss,
    You should look through the updates installed to see if there was an update to the video card.  I would then check with the manufacturer of your video card for the latest driver.  If you just updated to the most recent and feel it affected the color then you can restore the previous driver.  Then you can contact the manufacturer of the video card on the driver and they know the issue and see if they are still aware and have a fix.

  • Sony vaio vgn cr220e webcam issues

    Update to Windows 7 caused my webcam to stop working.  I think the problem is double.  (1) I don't have the original software.  (2) software can not detect the webcam.

    If I go to Device Manager it says my driver is up to date and I have a composite USB device with a pic of a camera.  When I download the software, it tries to bind to the cam and does not work.  Even google video chat will not recognize the camera.  The original software from sony on the site of sony vaio is still formatted for Vista I think what does not help either.

    Any suggestions are appreciated.

    Hi burner_na,

  • Several X201T problems solved - sleep problems, lock issues, multiple monitors / dock issues

    Hi, guys.

    Immediately after obtaining my Tablet last summer, I installed Win 7 Enterprise, our company holds a license for a microsoft SA customer.  Win 7 Enterprise has all the features of Ultimate edition, including Bitlocker, I needed.  I even restored the machine using discs I got from our Lenovo account manager and had the same problems as the image of the company.  My Tablet has the touch screen feature.

    I had the following problems with the Tablet, which are now resolved:

    Trackpad spoil randomly

    http://forums.Lenovo.com/T5/X-series-Tablet-ThinkPad-Laptops/X201T-trackpad-issues-randomly-tries-to...

    The tablet on the first day, there's a new trackpad.  The party has had more than 4 weeks to arrive, but it fixed the problem once it was replaced.  I tried 1 billion software solutions (different drivers, settings, etc...) and blew a lot of time, so if you have this problem, get your replaced trackpad.

    External monitor did not work with docking station

    http://forums.Lenovo.com/T5/X-series-Tablet-ThinkPad-Laptops/X201T-multi-monitor-issue-with-ultrabas...

    The solution was to use an adapter displayport to DVI to my Dell 24 "monitor.  The Displayport takes a long time to synchronize with the monitor that he thinks it isn't getting a signal, and the laptop turns off the display shortly after having tried to activate it.  In this case most of the time.  With the help of an adapter DVI worked very well.  I found myself propping my tablet in portrait mode with a cheap portable stand in a big box office supply store so I can have the OneNote upward on the tablet screen throughout the day.

    The final two problems have been solved with the application of a patch of Windows:

    At the end of each computer session, I had to shut down windows with one hand on the power button.  It was extremely disruptive.

    http://forums.Lenovo.com/T5/X-series-Tablet-ThinkPad-Laptops/X201T-tablet-can-t-lock-the-computer-or...

    It was awful.  As I sometimes ran programs in respect of the whole of the high network privileges and have a sensitive Inbox, it meant that I had to basically hold the power to stop the machine when I go to the toilet.

    Why no system update?

    Lenovo - the fact that this fix does not appear as an update required in Lenovo System Update caused me a lot of grief.  If you have a technical reason why it was available on the site, I would like to hear about it.  The case, please make your tablet customers a favor and put this in the system update.  There is absolutely no doubt in my mind that the fix has solved all of my most serious problems, despite a description of Microsoft that doesn't seem to match the symptoms.

    I'm a happy guy now that all my stuff works.  A bad computer can really make your life difficult.

    @deathbots,

    Thanks for sharing the steps you have taken to solve the problem, I will drop a comment to the TVSU on this topic to see if it is possible to implement this go ahead.

I set it to 150% only to see.  When I look at my device manager it just says generic pnp monitor

    I need help.

    Hi Tracey,

    1. What is the default DPI that you use on Windows 7?

    2 are you referring to external screen LCD monitor or laptop LCD?

    3. What is the resolution of the screen on the computer?

    There are several reasons why view on Windows 7 may not work correctly. Follow these methods and check if that helps:

    Method 1:

    Windows uses a technology called ClearType to create more readable on the screen text. On some monitors, you might want to turn ClearType on or off, or need to adjust it. For more information on the start-up and adjustment of ClearType, I suggest you to refer to these Microsoft article and check if it helps:

    Make the text easier to read using ClearType

    ClearType: Frequently asked questions

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-in/Windows7/ClearType-frequently-asked-questions

    Method 2:

    If the problem persists, try uninstalling and reinstalling the latest graphics card drivers and check if it helps:

  • Computer problems AlienWare x 51 ~ monitor the issue and 2000:0142.

    Hi, I hope it's in the good post.

    I have a few questions about my Alienware computer X 51 does not.

    I turned on my computer after completing a tutorial (I know the tutorial) in the tutorial that it asked to change certain settings, which I don't remember, unfortunately.

    When I disconnected all the wires and readded them and turned on the computer was not connected with the screen, yes the computer turns on, but the screens are not. I tried 2 computers (Vga and Hdmi), but they have no connection or something like that, the threads are * properly * in and screens are set right, so I think it is the computer itself

    They are to solve this problem of monitor anyway?.

    Also, I tried to fix the problem (s) on the computer. I did a test (when the screens were working) and it came up saying that I have a 2000:0142 question, any ideas why?

    When I start my computer, it starts but a little how freezes on the login screen, I have tried to do this at the start also, however, it came not again.

    Any ideas to solve this problem too?

    I hope that this is in the right place, and I hope to have some answers...

    Thank you.

  • Satellite L350D - Webcam not working no-webcam must be restarted

    Hiya,

    first of all I don't know if there is a warranty issue, but I always seems to be getting in post offices closing at present.

    The new laptop sometimes seems to play and suggest the unrecognized USB device.
    In addition to that the webcam is not listed in the hardware setup.

    I tried to reinstall the webcam drivers, but although they install ok computer is actually the webcam, i.e. it is not listed in system devices and force Vista to get the camera does not lead to a bit of luck. (the adjacent microphone for the webcam works fine).
    Whenever I start the computer it tells me now that I need to restart the computer or the webcam.

    I'm running Vista 32 bit, the 250 d being a 1.9Athlon core duo with 2 GB of ram and certainly comes with a webcam (I don't seem to recall the little blue light come early during installation, but never again since).

    Is it worth getting a hard reinstall, even if Windows is normally good enough to pick up new equipment surely?
    I had a look on other webcam issues, but the drivers are not good because I can't really do the webcam anything.
    I've been on the guarantee page but you are trying to enter the serial No. He said: there is no.

    Any ideas?

    Thank you, Jason

    * 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".

    Since there is no power for the keyboard and monitor, the issue seems to be with the material. I suggest that get you in touch with the hardware manufacturer for further assistance on the issue.

  • Monitoring of virtual machines running on the UCS blades

    We are in the process of migration of servers HP rack to Cisco UCS blades. I have 4 blades UCS running ESXi and dΘmarrez from SAN. We have configured in HP SIM HP servers to monitor hardware issues and the status of the VM. Now Let's watch the material of the UCS in UCS Manager, but I still need to monitor the status of virtual machines. I looked at existing Solarwinds NPM we have all our ESXi HP servers to Solarwinds. What I've discovered, is that we cannot add the individual to NPM ESXi blades, because we can not configure SNMP (or we).

    Which means that migrate us from HP servers for UCS blades, we lose the ability to monitor the State of the CPU and VM.

    How people monitor their virtual machines in an environment of UCS?

    Thank you.

    We monitor our UCS ESXi 5 with SNMP hosts and use Solarwinds NPM.  It works well.  These are the commands that we send through our VMA (free VMware) server to a new host.

    vicfg-snmp - root server - username - password it

    vicfg-snmp - root server - username - password you @162.

    vicfg-snmp - root server - username - password e

    There's probably a way to do it on the console of the host, but I don't know what it could be.
