Portege A600-13D - webcam stopped working

Hello

I have a Netbook Toshiba Portege A600-13D old, I am very satisfied with it, but lately the WEBCAM does not work and I have no idea what to do. If I try to activate the camera, I have the answer:

The WEB camera could not been initialized

Systemcontrol is the message:

The camera could not been started, Code 10

If I look at the driver and try to update, the message is:

The optimal driver is already installed

Maybe someone has an idea of what I can do and how to proceed. Sorry my bad English!

Thanks in advance and best regards

Hello

Error code 10 means that the device could not start.
This may be related to driver problem (software), but also hardware problem.

Let's see if its a software issue: check that I recommend you to uninstall the software for a Chicony webcam first.
As far as I know, you should be able to uninstall the software in the control panel? programs & features.
In the case of the Chicony webcam software is not listed here, go to Device Manager and uninstall the webcam driver which you should find in imaging devices.

After the system restart, go to the page of the Toshiba UE driver and download Chicony webcam software to perform the new installation.
You will probably need to restart the laptop once more to make it work properly.

So lets hope that this accelerated procedure would solve your problem of course that if the problem is related to the problem of software.

  • Portege Z830-10F - WLAN stops working when USB3.0 port is in use

    Hello

    On my Portege Z830-10F wireless stops working when I plug in a device on the USB 3 port. The wireless connection back upwards as soon as I remove the device.

    The problem occurs with any device I plug. I tested with disks external usb (usb 2 and usb 3), USB, a receiver wireless mouse and a printer/scanner.

    This problem only occurs when something is connected to the USB 3 port. The USB 2 ports on the rear do not have the problem.

    Port USB 3 itself works very well.

    Running windows 8 pro:
    * Wireless lan adapter: Qualcomm Atheros AR9200WB-1NG (version 10.0.0.75 driver)
    * USB port 3: Renesas USB 3.0 eXtensible Host Controller - 0096 (version 6.2.9200.16420 driver)

    I see that I ve got the latest drivers installed on the wireless LAN card and the usb host controller 3.

    The problem arises as well on windows 7 and windows 8 pro. I used the wizard to upgrade Toshiba upgrade of windows 7 to windows 8.

    This problem is present since I got this laptop. I ve already done a reinstall / recovery back to the original with windows configuration 7 but this doesn´t solve the problem.

    Does anyone else have this problem?

    Is there a way to fix this?

    Thank you!

    Hello

    To be honest, it's the first time I read on this issue.
    I have no idea how a device attached to the USB 3.0 port could affect the Wlan functionality.

    I assume its hardware fault and cela must be verified by a certified maker Toshiba.

  • Portege R830 - Internal Microphone stopped working

    Hello

    I have a Portege R830 1 month. Using Windows 7 64 bit. Set up Skype and everything was working 2 weeks ago now only the video work. The microphone has stopped working.

    I installed the latest Realtek HD Ausio Driver and Webcam driver. The setting of the microphone is not cut and leave and Booster is the max. This is the default recording device. The only thing that has changed is I tried external speakers and also started using a docking station.

    It drives me crazy. Any ideas? I wonder if it's a hardware problem?

    Hey,.

    You use the preinstalled version of Windows 7 in Toshiba or is it your own installation?

    The microphone is a part of webcam and this is why you need to install the driver for the webcam. You wrote that you reinstalled the driver for the webcam, but did you remove the old version first? You must remove the older version first, and then restart your laptop. In addition, use CCleaner (freeware tool) to clean the registry and restart. Then your computer is ready for a new driver.

    Install the latest version and try again.

    By the way: you run factory settings or you have installed your own version of Windows?

    Please see the Toshiba driver download page:

  • Webcam stopped working my Satellite Pro C850

    My webcam has stopped working. There used to work on an intermittent basis now works do not at all. I deleted the software and reinstalled, tried everything. Just the webcam does not appear on the Device Manager list.

    I'm starting to suspect that it is a hardware problem?
    Everything that could be done?
    Thank you.

    > Just the webcam does not appear on the Device Manager list.
    Feel the hardware problem.
    If it is just a software/driver issue, the webcam should also appear as a device unknown in Device Manager, or marked with yellow exclamation point.
    So I think that his unwanted material.

    But also check the BIOS settings if the webcam is enabled:

  • U350 webcam stopped working, Device Manager disappear.

    Hi all

    I'm hoping to get some help here. I have seen that other people had similar problems, but no satisfactory solution that applied. So go again us.

    I bought a U350 with Windows 7 home basic 32-bit.

    He came with a Bison/Lenovo Webcam which worked fine when I bought it. I usually use the camera with Skype.

    Yesterday, when using Skype, I noticed that the camera was gone, dissappeared.

    It does not show when I hit FN + ESC. I have reinstalled Power Manager, always the same question.

    It shows nothing in Device Manager. Imaging devices have disappeared.

    When I tried to add a new device imaging and added manually and stressed the downloaded driver, the driver installation begins. Then suddenly it stops with a warning saying: "no device in the setup.ini file is on this computer.

    I can't uninstall anything, because I don't see anything in the Device Manager. I can't install any drivers as the material seems to be undetectable.

    My wild guess is that the Webcam has stopped working or is disconnected from the motherboard. But maybe you have clues othere what this could be? Not detected by Device Manager means that the material is broken?

    Thank you very much!

    AJ

    If you script site and it has not detected any camera, possible problem of cable, connector or camera.

    I suggest you call lenovo support line and ship your laptop.

    Edit: because you need technical support, I've marked this issue as resolved.

  • T430 Webcam stops working after sleep

    I have a T430 with Windows 7 Enterprise SP1 and a built-in webcam. All current Lenovo drivers/software packages are installed. The webcam works fine until I put the computer to sleep. After he falls asleep, the only way to get the webcam to work again is to reboot. When I try the webcam software "Lenovo - Web Conferencing", I get "the camera is used by another application. I reinstalled the drivers and the software with the same result. Does anyone know how to fix this?

    Looks like what happened. I think that the pilot of the T430 series they Lenovo has for the built-in camera is not compatible with Windows 7 (even though it says it is).

    Of my other post: I had to remove the device through Device Manager, while checking the box that says "uninstall driver" and then reboot and let windows automatically installs a driver for the camera. I currently have no problem, and I use the version of the driver camera of Microsoft 6.1.7601.18208 (as dated 21/06/2006). I still have the characteristics of the virtual camera to the ThinkVantage Communications utility. So far no problem. I am running Windows 7, 64 bit.

    (PS: I use actually the factory driver now, after running the restore disks. My driver now says: Ricoh, 16/02/2012, special 1.2.1.16).
