Sam P200-144: Chicony webcam drivers need reinstall after each reboot

Similar Questions

• Having to reinstall the Flash after each reboot.

  Windows 7 - IE9 - Flash version 11.0.1.152 - Plugins and OS update - ESET Smart Securty 4

  I am prompted to install the new version of Flash after a reboot, then, it happens at least once a day.

  I have install Flash and he moved very well and works until the PC starts again.

  I tried some of the following:

  -Use the Adobe Flash uninstaller before installing

  -Using the stand-alone Installer

  -Checked filter ActiveX and it has been off... turning on the causes

  This same behavior, but the problem I have has nothing to do with the filter

  Not sure when this started, but the user does not have this problem until recently.

  I use ESET Smart Security 4. On all of our systems, and that his PC is the only

  one that has a problem. Need elements pretty hard until I took the trouble

  with uninstall ESET just to see if that would help.

  The part that is really strange... If I manage add on, when it is running,

  I see that the Flash player it and name of Adobe here and that it is enabled.

  After I reboot and go into the Add-ons Manager, Flash is still there and still

  activated, but it now says "Unknown" instead of "Adobe" and is therefore no longer

  other programs Adobe listed. But then, when I reinstall, which becomes

  'fixed' and now, Adobe still says. So it seems almost like a problem of IE9

  and maybe a problem of corruption. No known problems with the PC. I guess

  reload from PC to starting from scratch would fix the problem... at least I hope he would,

  but I'm not ready for the main surgery if there is an easier solution.

  The TakeOwnership script took care of the problem. I'm not 100% OK with it, because it seems to just move UAC and a decrease in security. But at least it now seems to work the way it is supposed to in IE9 and I still probably charge this PC from scratch at an opportune time. Thank you!

• Satellite A300 - Chicony webcam does not work after upgrade to windows 7

  I'm frustrated so I came here to see if anyone knows a way to help solve this problem.

  I have a Toshiba Satellite A300, which came with Windows Vista 64 - bit pre-installed. After about a year or two to have the laptop, I decided to upgrade to Windows 7 64 bit. In the process, I believe that the driver of my webcam (Chicony usb 2.0 camera) has been eliminated.

  When I go into the Device Manager in the Control Panel, the webcam is not listed; nor is "imaging devices."

  I tried to download the driver manually, but I get an error message "Webcam open fail." Restart the computer or the camera. »

  My computer has registered my webcam as 'unknown device '.

  If anyone knows how to solve this problem, please, I beg you, let me know.

  > My computer has registered my webcam as 'unknown device '.
  > I tried to download the driver manually, but I get an error message "Webcam open fail." Restart the computer or the camera. »

  This means that the the webcam driver is not installed correctly.
  Visit the page of European driver of Toshiba and install the software/driver webcam just for this model of laptop.

  If the installation fails, restart the laptop and the tent.
  This should solve the problem.

• Needs to switch WLan activating / deactivating after each reboot on Equium A100-027

  Well my laptop worked fine for centuries, then recently each time the laptop restarts or turn on I have to turn off the WLAN switch and again each turn before the work of Wifi.

  He starts getting really annoying now; There seems to be a software bug / config problem, so I did a factory restore and even then still doesn't work does not correctly!

  Any ideas? It is driving my crazy now!

  OS is Vista home Premium BTW.

  Hello

  Try to update the WLan driver!
  In most cases, this helps!

  In addition I advise to use a tool to configure WLan as Intel ProSet utility for example (only if you use the Intel wireless network adapter)

  I use the Intel ProSet utility and I m very happy. My WiFi connects immediately after that the laptop has started.

  Whenever I restart the computer the latest version of the flash player is more installed in Internet Explorer 8.

• El Capitan 10.11.2 disconnects from the network of Canon printer macbook pro after each use but with the same OS version iMac remains connected

  How to prevent my Macbook Pro El Capitan 10.11.2 going to disconnect my network printer Canon?   My iMac running the same OS version don't unplug and behaves like any normal wireless connection.  I deleted the printer and added back, reset printing, etc. nothing works.  Given that the Mac is 6 "each other and 5 feet of printer during the last test, it must be something specific to the Macbook.  The Macbook identifies the printer after each reboot the printer as printer Canon right, but once the task is completed does not have the printer.  Everything is on the same wireless network. Computer Windows also recognizes the printer and it keeps alive after printing.

  Please read this message before doing anything.

  This procedure is a diagnostic test. It is unlikely to solve your problem. Don't be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.

  The test is intended to determine if the problem is caused by a third-party software that loads automatically at startup or logon, by a device, by a police conflict or corruption of system files or some system caches.

  Disconnect all devices wired except those required to test and remove all the expansion cards from secondary market, as appropriate. Start in safe mode and log on to the account of the problem.

  Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or an earlier version, or if a firmware password is defined, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can not do this. Ask for additional instructions.

  Safe mode is much slower to boot and run as normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things work at all, including an audio output and a Wi - Fi connection on some models. The next normal boot can also be a bit slow.

  The login screen is displayed even if you usually connect automatically. You need your password to log on. If you have forgotten the password, you will have to reset it before you begin.

  Test in safe mode. Same problem?

  After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and make sure you always have the problem. View the results of the test.

• laptop resets date and time back to factory on each reboot. Also removes the drivers for the cards and the outlook settings.

  Machine removes the drivers for the wireless card, also changes some settings in outlook after each reboot.

  Hi Jim,.

  You could try replacing the CMOS battery, as it appears to have failed.

• Need sound and webcam drivers for Satellite A660-156

  Hi all

  my hard drive is physically damaged and replaced with a new one. All the data and setting have been copied.

  But I found that you no sound and webcam drivers are installed. I had found them and correctly installed, but still no change. See its icon with indication 'no sound', click on it to solve the problem, but no problems were discovered.

  Offered to see additional information or close the window. The Toshiba site found two audio drivers, but it does not help.

  No idea how to solve this problem?

  Thnx in advance!

  Satellite A660-156 belongs to the PSAW3E series.
  Did you find this series on the Toshiba driver page?

  This series is in the list and you can find the drivers for Win 7 64 bit it.

  You can find the Webcam driver v 1.1.1.16 for Win 7 64-bit and two different audio drivers;
  It is NVIDIA v 1.0.10.0 and the other is v Realtek 6.0.1.6069

  I think you need the first v 1.0.10.0

• Chicony webcam on Satellite Pro P200 1.3 does not work properly

  This built-in Chicony webcam is slowly driving me insane.

  Sometimes it works (not since last week though). Usually, I get a message saying it is locked by another application - or it does not exist. Now, I can not even friends view webcams.

  The cam is displayed on my screen and seems perfect, but no one can see me! When I try to view the cam of friends, I am told that it is not connected.

  Now, I checked my device manager and it is not yet installed-just disappeared! I have recommended download driver Toshiba Europe (camsoft-2007081...), uncompressed, ran it, restarted, but apparently my laptop does not detect the webcam - even if a blue light flashes!

  Please get out me of my misery... someone!

  Thank you, thank you, gratias, go raibh mile, etc., etc.

  I read that sometimes the internal TV tuner would block the internal webcam and so this error message.
  But as far as I know this laptop was not equipped the internal TV tuner, and therefore, this possibility is not relevant.

  Always is it that any application locks the webcam software. In case you would you recommend to go the msconfig and disable first the webcam services that run in the background. Then turn it back on.

  In most cases, this helps!
  By the way; I noticed this problem only with yahoo messenger and ms. Skype works ok!

• Equium P200 - recently the webcam has stopped working

  I have an Equium P200 under Vista 32 bit-
  Recently the web cam stopped working so I tried to reinstall the driver.
  I downloaded the driver from Toshiba but it wouldn't install properly, it appears as an unknown device in Device Manager.

  I have done some research and there may be a compatibility problem with Vista.

  Someone eles has the same problem or can help you?

  Hello

  What webcam do you mean?
  Do you mean the webcam Chicony internal or 3rd party external webcam?

  The internal Chicony webcam is fully compatible with the Vista operating system and the software/driver should install correctly!

  Try to clean the OS using CCLeaner after you remove the software for the webcam of the system.
  After the new reboot, download Chicony webcam software again from the page of European driver of Toshiba and try to install it again.

• Satellite P200-144 never stop correctly using Vista Ultimate

  Recently made a regeneration of my P200-144. Used with Vists Home recovery disk. Then upgraded to Vista Ultimate. After it was sold went to the web site of toshiba for the latest drivers and decided to update the bios.

  To restart the laptop is it never shutdown properly. Left with no other choice it off (left by logging out of the screen).

  Now computer laptop won't do anything. Is it possible to get the bios to boot / restore or do I need to reach a support centre.

  Hmm, looks a little more that the BIOS update failed?  :|
  Usually, in such situation the ASP help is necessary.

  But before contact you the ASP and will be sent to this device on the balance I would recommend removing the battery and disconnect the laptop power adapter.
  Then wait about 20 min, then reconnect both sides and try to start the laptop.

  If you won't be successful then the help of ASP is required

  Good luck

• 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.

• Chicony webcam

  Hello
  I recently bought a m600 portege... and the webcam does not appear in my computer as it should...
  It DOES not work with Skype, and so im guessing it will work with msn, however, I can't get the camera to work separately from any of these video chat programs.
  I would like to be able to take photos and video with the webcam and I search through the forums and that you HAVE read about the MS. fix... but all the files on the page come as non-applicable? is it because I'm looking for the ar in the wrong place, either because it is not really applicable on my computer?
  Is there another way to make the webcam work?
  Please answer as soon as possible!

  Thank you!
  Betty

  I found this in another thread:

  Download the updated Chicony Webcam driver on Toshiba website: ChiconyWebcam Driver v1.7.175.0123
  Install Vista Service Pack 1 or the 934374 patch: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/934374
  Update MSN/Yahoo Messenger

  Note that you can only use a single application with the webcam at the same time. So if Skype is open or running in the background, it may contain the open webcam. Completely close the system tray Skype and try again.
