• of HP Pavilion laptop webcam problem

  I have a hp Pavilion dx6665ca with Vista and all the service packs and updates of the firmware & bios.  In recent months, every time I have open or close the lid, I get a notification on the toolbar by saying: "unrecognized usb device".  It looks like this:

  http://imgur.com/0eOrQ.jpg

  It was annoying, but nothing seemed to be irrelevant.  I also have a problem where the left side of the screen will sometimes flicker and go almost black, then I thought it might have something to do with it, but it was intermittent.

  I recently tried to use the webcam and it was not detected by the software. After you have checked in Device Manager, I realized it wasn't showing up there under imaging devices, as it should:

  http://imgur.com/Z9j86.jpg

  I have the impression that the "unknown device" under the controllers USB is the camera, but Vista does not know what it is.

  I tried the new firmware, software, uninstall and reinstall all usb devices and drivers, nothing seems to work.  I always get the message "unrecognized usb device" if every time I open or close the lid.

  If the Device Manager it detects not after all these attempts, am I experiencing a hardware problem?  My warranty expired 2 months ago is there no matter what chance hp will fix this issue, I see so many posts and it seems to be a widespread hardware issue?

  Any contribution is appreciated.

  Thanks in advance.

  Hey guys, I saw some people posted again so I thought I would add a few things...

  Since my last post, I replaced my inverter display twice and my Webcam once. I think that following these two parties do not and one of them more than once, that we can logically deduce that there is a problem with the amount of energy supplied to these two devices.  They are powered by the same connector and I bet that these hardware components fail after that.  Even now, on my THIRD Board(original +2) Inverter it is still flickering. Short of replacing the machine, you can replace these components.

  You have two choices: pay to have someone else fix it or do it yourself.  If your idea of a screwdriver is a butterknife, pay someone else.  If you are confident, smart and willing to learn, you can do it yourself.  You could ruin your machine if you screw up, but I promise you that's not so difficult.  For model Pavilion dx6000, look on ebay for the following:

  Camera Module-part # 446486-001. A simple installation with the right tools. Do not break the legs that hold the bezel (frame) plastic around the screen or the lid does not close.

  Display the converter DC-AC-part # 431391-001. This one is a little harder to install, but you have to be patient and VERY CAREFUL NOT to BREAK THE TAPE.

  Here is the link for the manual.  The title is different by model number, but the procedure is the same, including the reference numbers:

  http://h20000.www2.HP.com/BC/docs/support/SupportManual/c01178385/c01178385.PDF

  To replace the camera module, go to page 37.

  For Inverter Board replacement, go to page 39.

  I hope this helps.

• Pavilion dv6 Webcam does not?

  I have a Pavilion dv6-1030 ca laptop, and since a few weeks, I had trouble with my webcam. When I open the HP MediaSmart Webcam, I get the following error message: "no video device detected. Please connect a video device to your computer. If you are using a built-in camera, please make sure that it is turned on. "I have a built-in camera, and (usually) lights up when the webcam application opens. I am running Windows Vista with SP1 and tried many things to fix it, nothing helps. The webcam does not appear in the device, under imaging devices Manager, nor any of the Hubs USB root. So far I have tried:

  -Reinstalled the drivers of USB root hub

  -A tried to fix the solution in the BIOS (that another thread suggested)
  -A tried to use Recovery Manager to reinstall the driver (wasn't in the list)

  -The recovery disks created to solve the problem (it didn't)

  -Updated the MediaSmart Webcam software

  I'm at school right now, and I can't really afford to give my phone to obtain compensation for three weeks since I have exams coming. Any help would be appreciated! Thank you!

  Don't pay fees to repair overpriced... it happened to dv6 my boss, lift just the frame surrounding the top and sides.  You don't need a crowbar on the bottom of the frame.  Use your nails under the inside edge of the frame, they have adhesive tape double-sided, so it can be a little difficult to dislodge.  Lift slowly so that the band can separate on its own.  Don't force quickly or you could damage it.  Make sure you are not prying the metal frame silver of the LCD, only the black plastic frame.  There are hooks plastic that will make a click sound when you lift up the frame, it will need a strength, so don't be afraid if you hear the wink, he should be able to put it back together if you did it correctly, otherwise you will need to use some tape to tape the rear frame, better than paying $100 +... haha.  Once you have pryed on the top of the frame and have access to the webcam module, you should see the cable going into it from the bottom, push the cable into the webcam, then see if the problem is resolved, the cable most likely just came loose.  If that solved the problem, I suggest to use something you can remove, as hot glue to hold it together, just in case the webcam really needs to be replaced, you can melt the glue wide and swap out.

  If your microphone works very well and just the webcam does not work, then the problem is most likely a driver problem, or the webcam itself somehow has been damaged, which is highly unlikely.

  Hello, I have a G7-2051SA Pavilion on W7 64-bit and webcam does not work. I have the "Cyberlink Youcam" which, once the software is installed, I run, he "No webcam detected". Skype does not detect it either. I've updated the latest drivers and using tune has conducted an audit and update PC with all relevant software but I still get the error.

• HP Pavilion dv6707us webcam corrupted by Vista updates.

  My HP Pavilion dv6707us says «unrecognized webcam»  I tried the driver updates - but because the webcam is not recognized - it can not download updates.  I read online that this was due to the automatic updates of Windows Vista (Home Premium).  How can I fix?

  Hello Sue_991,

  I suggest that you download the software from the HP Web site and install. It will automatically load the drivers. Here is a link you can follow to download and install the software:

• HP Pavilion DM4 - webcam software?

  Hello.  HP Virgin here

  I work with an organization that has a range of HP laptops and even if the built-in webcams work with Skype, etc the problem is that Windows 7 and 8 have been installed on these machines and the software installed at the factory existin today disappeared.

  Not fair to say there was a software factory for different uses of the built-in webcam?

  If so, can you point me in the right direction to reinstall it?

  Hi vegetarianator,

  I think what you're looking for is the following: Software Cyberlink YouCam - it's the webcam HP software offers for download.

  If you have problems with the webcam itself, I have also included a troubleshooting document you can keep on hand: HP Webcam troubleshooting

  Hope that helps

• Pavilion 6000 webcam stop working?

  I tried to get information on this, and it seems maybe the HP drivers must be installed vista drivers.  BTW, this is regarding the integrated HP webcam.  I've been to the hp page and checked for the youcam software, but it will not install because it says it cannot detect any installed webcam.  I made the HP health check and nothing, I did the update of HP and nothing, even windows updates and nothing.  When I go into my device manager, there is NOT a webcam shown!  This laptop is old, less than a year, what the hell is happening?  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  Web Cam are listed under "Imaging devices" in device Manager.

  Do you know how to enter the bios?  F2 for Setup when you turn on your machine.  Takes you to the configuration of the blue Bios screen.  The cam can be turned off in the bios.  At the bottom tells you which keys to use to navigate through the bios Setup program.  You must exit and SAVE settings if you change one.

  The second thing, if you tryied the driver from the HP website and it will not be installed...

  Device Manager-

  Check your USB port "USB HUB ROOT" 'do a right click then properties, then Goto power up' see if you can find the cam connected in one of these centers.  You can have up to 8 of them, so look at each of them.

  You may uninstall the USB hub driver, and then restart your machine.  Need to reinstall all the USB ports after restart.

  Then see if windows will detect your cam after that.

  Also make sure you have windows SP2 Service pack 2 or 3 installed.  My computer, do a right click, properties.  Windows Version is in the list.

  Check the event viewer for system errors.  Control Panel, administrative tools, event viewer.  System or applications dealing with your Cam Driver or hardware.

• Pavilion dv7 webcam

  Hello

  I just bought the laptop and my webcam is not recognized by Skype.  Does anyone have any suggestions? It's my first time using Skype and the first time with a web cam so not sure if I need to do something.  I see myself in the web cam but if not sure why Skype does not recognize.

  Thank you!

  1. Connect to Skype and on the Tools menu, select Options....
  2. Under the video settings, if you have a webcam connected, you will see a live image of your webcam.
  3. If necessary, and if you have multiple webcams connected to your computer, select a Webcam HP in the drop-down list.
  4. Click Save.
  

• DV9000 webcam not recognized

  have: dv9000 w / 1.3 megapixels, W7 Ultimate 64 bit

  question: webcam is not recognized and not recognized in (imaging device) Device Manager using belarc. so no webcam

  question: is the material connected to the mobo to be defective? bad connection to the webcam to the mobo? Can what tests I perform to determine the exact cause of having no webcam?

  If a train stops at a train station which then becomes a workstation work?

  Most likely the module webcam up upstairs behind the screen bezel went wrong. Very common. Other scenarios, such as the bad cable are possible, but not probable. The webcam module is so cheap that it pays to just buy one and try it first before you pull out your hair with other possible solutions:

• New Pavilion dv7, HP TrueVision HD webcam not detected

  Just bought my new Pavilion dv7, and when I run the Cam software, it tells me that my HP TrueVision HD webcam is not detected. I tried this for a few days, at a point when I was trying to play with the settings you Cam, webcam light on for aprox. 2 seconds and then died again, since then, it won't let me even in the settings of YouCam.

  Right now I am more and more convinced that it is because of my laptop being assembled outside the United States. Need a fix for it immediately.

  Hi guys,.

  I had the same problem with a HP Pavilion dv7-6e22b. I read on a short cable inside the screen.
  I found the post on the way in which the display is connected. It's an older model but I was curious to know how to remove the cover of the machine. It contains 2 screws (that I didn't have to remove to access the camera) just be causious does not break the bevel.

  http://www.insidemylaptop.com/remove-LCD-screen-inverter-Board-HP-Pavilion-dv7-notebook/

  It is an older model in the new model, the connector of the webcam is located directly under the lens of the webcam itself.
  I pressed connector you slightly. And suddenly I hear a USB all OFA linking sound. After that my device manager showed a "device-image", and the software work directly.

  I jump it will solve your problems. I say read all messages and do not find a solution to the driver or software and after seeing the connector, I think it's an effort of poor deisgn by using short cables and small connectors.

  good luck to all!

• How to find my webcam on my Pavilion 23-q116

  I recently bought a 23-q116 all-in-one Pavilion and cannot find any reference to one webcam that is other than the list of features on the box "integrated before face to the webcam with microphone".  Where should I look for this?

  The webcam is perfectly integrated into the upper edge of the screen. Please let me know if you have any questions about using your webcam.

• HP Pavilion Notebook e016dx 17: recovery driver webcam HP Pavilion 17

  After a restoration of the system to my laptop and an upgrade to windows 10 that my webcam stopped working so I had checked the driver for updates the Device Manager said there were not and or Skype or youcam could recognize the built-in webcam, although he says that he has no problem I tried to disable and the reactivation of the webcam but also to restart the pc and nothing had worked and eventually I ended up accidentally uninstall the integrated webcam driver altogether and I really want to restore my phone again if it can be avoided. So is it possible to re - install the driver for the webcam which is integrated with the HP Pavilion 17 Notebook?, I have already tried the site looking for the driver and did not find the drives for my laptop it simply suggests that I have updated windows (which I already have and the problem was not resolved).

  

  Hi oOXeonOo,

  Thank you for your answer!

  Webcam downloads only I find on software and Driver Downloads, is the software to use it. Cyberlink Youcam software.

  So in this case, I recommend you to try the full system factory restore, remember to back up your files first.
