My webcam does not work. How can I make it work again?

-Very well, so I have a Gateway computer, T-Series, not exactly that model because when I sent the computer geek team, they covered the sticker on the bottom that tells you what it is, but that should not be too significant. Thus, the original hard copy of this computer died earlier. I took the hard drive on an HP failure and after I installed all the drivers on the right, the computer works perfectly, the hitch is that the hard drive it's a HP photo and not a bridge. The point being, my gateway integrated webcam does not work without the driver (of course) and because the hard does not know that the computer has one, I don't know which driver should I download. If anyone has any information on the gateway series T, as those who had webcams and how webcam can be in the computer, so that I can find the driver for that it would be useful.

EDIT: The laptop is a gateway series W350a T with a 1.3 Megapixel WebCam. If you guys can offer any help, please do.

These links do not help me that the computer is running Windows Vista, not Windows 7 which you would know if you had paid attention to what it has been marked to the title.

Also, in my edit, I added that the computer was a W350a. At this point your suggestions don't help me because after more than an hour to keep searching, I finally found a picture of the T-16 of the gateway that is my model exactly. After another 20 minutes of research I discovered a link to the website of gateway directly to the page where this computers drivers. I downloaded the Chicony WebCam Assistant and viola, problem solved.

Thanks but no thanks for these suggestions, so they're as bad as, if not worse than what I would have gotten if I had called the bridge to help Customer Support. The only difference is that I wouldn't have to wait a day for this stupid proposal, I would be immediately obtained.

  • Satellite A200: After Vista Ultimate upgrade Chicony webcam does not work

    Hello

    I hope someone can help me. For 3 weeks, I have buy the Toshiba A200 with Windows Vista Home Premium and very good built-in Webcam function. I have no problem.

    Yesterday I did an upgrade to Windows Vista Edition full and now the Webcam does not work.
    Every time when I want to launch the following software message come «Please activate the webcam»

    In the it´s control panel that wrote this function of Doesna´t of hardware because the software isn't fair. But I have the right software. I have try the original software on me the hard drive and, of course, I do a download from Toshiba and I try this.
    But I still got the same message.

    Please help me.

    Hello

    I m not an A200 owner and, therefore, I can not say much about this webcam tool, but to my eyes the Chicony webcam software should work with Windows Vista Ultimate Edition, because this version is almost the same as Windows Vista Home Premium. The ultimate version supports more features like Home Premium, but the software is running and must be compatible with both versions of Vista.

    How did you install Vista Ultimate? You perform a new installation of the OS, or you upgrade only the Home Premium-> Ultimate?

    Anyway, currently version 1.0 of the Chicony camera software is available on the Toshiba page.
    You may need to wait until the new update has been published.

    First when I installed the driver for the webcam on what he asks me to plug the webcam when it tells me the model that he asks me to support next it goes perfect until it reaches the stage where you have to use the cam, and it is said that the cam is not connected to the computer, although it is firmly connected and I finish the wizard to skip the "take a photo" and used the software which was attached with the webcam but when even the webcam does not work.

    What I tried:

    3 - reinstall the programs tied up with the webcam.

    4. get the latest drivers for the webcam and re-install the drivers.

    5. try different USB hubs.

    6 and finally change the webcam.

    But even the webcam does not work, this webcam, any webcam.

    Note: When I plug the webcam into a new USB hub, the led of the webcam and the 'new device driver software installation"will, but when the bubble"the software device driver has been installed successfully"pop the LED goes out and even got upgraded to 4 different USB hubs.

  • Envy 15 J003-tx: Webcam does not work properly

    My laptop webcam does not work correctly. It worked correctly and comfortably at the time where I bought the laptop recently.  But now, the hd quality missed thanks to a certain period. I have tried several methods until this. I thought the cyberlink you cam affect only indirectly & I uninstall & began to use the camera to windows. But it does make a difference. The photos are very dark such as silouhgts can only be seen. In my view, there is a vulnerability with some drivers or settings. But I can not diaognase that. What should I do?

    Hello

    I m a bit confused; you have some problems with the graphics card or with the webcam?

    I assume you mean on external webcam connected to the USB port? Right?
    What happens if you connect the webcam to the laptop? Can win 7 recognize the device? Have you installed additional drivers for this webcam?
    Most of the time it s necessary to do so because I think that it s not Plug & Play device.

  • Integrated on my Satellite T130 webcam does not work

    Hi all

    the built-in on my Satellite T130 webcam does not work.

    I use Windows 7 Home Premium and already reinstalled the drivers of webcam 64-bit through this Web site. However, when I click on the webcam application, simply, nothing happens - program doesn't open at all or turn off instantly. Skype is not also acknowledge a cam. In addition, there is no webcam in Device Manager (a not detected USB device however) and no symbol of cam in the Ribbon of Toshiba quicklaunch, which is like the camera is started according to the "manual".

    Someone has an idea what is the problem? Looks like a common problem according to Google, but no suggestions other than to reinstall the drivers. Perhaps another application blocking the camera? Firewall settings?

    I'd appreciate any help, thank you.

    Best regards Florian

    > a USB not detected if

    Maybe it's the webcam from the webcam is connected to the internal USB controller on the motherboard.

    It looks like a webcam driver is not installed correctly.
    Try the webcam driver released for the satellite t230 or other series of satellites.
    Versions are newer

    Also recommend that you check the BIOS settings.
    In some cases, the BIOS contains a webcam option where the webcam can be turned on and off.

  • Satellite A300-1NO - webcam does not work, but the LED lights

    Hello!

    I have a laptop Satellite A300-1NO, with Win 7 installed. My problem is that my webcam does not work always, when I want to use it. Sometimes, it works perfectly in Skype, WLM etc... but sometimes I see a white or a black screen with a 'loading circle' in there. Blue is the LED light, I can see it in Device Manager too, but there is no picture, just 'loading '. I tried to uninstall the driver and then reinstall it, I installed the new "camera Assistant for Toshiba", without success.

    Is there any solution for this?

    > Is there any solution for this?
    I put t think there is solution for this. If I understand you right there is a problem with software pre-installed. It is not easy to say why this is happening.

    I have Satellite A300 too and use it with Win7 32 bit. Webcam works fine all the time.

    One more thing: have you noticed this problem in the first moments after installing Win7 or later?
    Have you installed something that may be the reason for this?

  • Satellite A660 - Webcam does not work when using Skype

    I recently bought a Satellite A660-15J. I am running Windows 7 64 bit.

    I have the latest version of Skype (5.3.0.111).

    The integrated Webcam does not work when you run Skype. If I run the Toshiba Web Camera Application the webcam works fine. However, when I test it in Skype, I get a message saying "cannot start video. Try quitting other programs that use the webcam '.

    However, as far as I can tell there no other programs available. I have tried Skype with the Web Camera Application clised & open. I also confirmed that I do run the latest version of the program.

    One of the main reasons we have this laptop is to use Skype video... Help, please.

    Disable webcam application start-up and exit this application before you start Skype.

    I used Skype many different models of laptops, including friends A660 and it worked correctly.

    When you open Skype video settings is listed as default camera USB webcam?
