• Driver Chicony webcam does not work on the Satellite A200-13O

  After the misfortune that occurred to my webcam, I tried to fix it by uninstalling the driver and then put it back in place (by the toshiba Web site).
  I did this twice and it does not work,
  allthought the pc installed the driver, the camera was not working because a file was for win95 and my pc has vista.

  After several reboots, I made the following
  -Start
  -all programs
  -camera assistant software
  -Right click
  -options (the last button in the right click menu...)
  -compatibility
  -Select work in win95 compatibility
  -ok
  Sorry for my English, I am Greek and my menu vista also... :))
  If anyone wants more details please to contact me.
  I hope this could help those in despair...

  Hello

  Yes I would like some details;).

  For example: manufacturer who is the camera, it is built, made, he has worked previously, and so on...

  So there is a lot to say, have you ever said to the second part, but I'm missing a few things as I've described above. By the way: you can try to recover your machine, if you really need on your camera, but it is really the LAST RESORT.

  Good bye

  Hello

  The question of the internal webcam can be resolved by installing the update from Ms.
  The Vista SP1 also provides the necessary MS fix and it is advisable to install it too.

  I found this document Toshiba which describes this problem and brings you the solution.

• Portege M800 - Chicony Webcam does not work

  I have a Portege M800 and the Camera Assistant Software simply does not work.

  I upgraded my Vista 64-bit Service Pack 2, I reinstalled the driver several times and I downloaded the latest version of the Camera Assistant Software from the Web from Toshiba site and nothing worked.

  I get a 'preview of no.' when I load first it and 'Graph making Fail' when I go to the video.
  However, the only thing is that I know that the camera itself is very well because very rarely it will work on MSN messenger, but he has not responded to other programs.

  Please help me!

  Hello

  > The only thing however is that I know that the camera itself is very well because very rarely it will work on MSN messenger, but he has not responded to other programs.

  This means that more different applications have access to this camera. Is this good?
  I think that is the question!

  In your case, I recommend you to disable the webcam software in msconfig-> Startup tab.
  In addition, you must disable the MSN also in msconfig. The point is that only an application that uses and sharing the webcam should run in the background of the OS.
  I think that this would avoid problems with other software

  Try using NLite
  With this free tool, you can create a custom XP install disc (of course you need a working pc to run this tool...).

  He images your cd xp and you have the option to add drivers. the pilots, you add to the installation of xp to work are in the zip "Intel Matrix Storage Manager - 7.5.0.1017" [link: http://nl.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/tracker.jsp?file=http%3a%2f%2fsupport2.toshiba-tro.de%2ftedd-files2%2f0%2fstormng-20070827133046.zip]

  I used the drivers in the ICH8M_32bit directory.

  Somewhere in this forum that employment is better explained, I also found here.
  Good luck!

• 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.

• Satellite P300 - 148 Vista Ulimate - LED light button does not work

  My laptop model is Satellite P300-148.
  I reinstall system-vista Ultimate.

  However, after installation, my * mute button or LED light button * cannot be controlled by press mute.

  It's like, normally, when you press the mute, the light will be switched on or off.
  However, this is no answers when I press on it.

  I can only turn lighting on or off using Toshiba help.

  Also when I press the "play" button, the windows media player has no more answers.

  So is it a solution? Or drivers?
  Thanks for the reply.

  Hello

  I think that these buttons don t work properly due to the Vista Ultimate.
  I checked some threads here and it seems that the PPV that controls this Toshiba buttons don t support the ultimate or the ultimate doesn't fully support the VAP.

  But just a question;
  Did you check the Toshiba Assist-> Optimize-> Toshiba button Support?
  This tool allows you to configure the buttons. Maybe you should check this.

• Chicony webcame is not working on the Satellite A350-12j and Win 7 64 bit

  Hello

  The chicony webcam does not work on my toshiba Satellite A350-12j and windows 7 64 bit...

  I always get different errors as
  "graphics make it fail."
  "the device is locked by another program.
  etc...

  I tried many things and watch them on a lot of messages, but nothing does. I installed a lot of drivers and programs to solve, but nothing works.
  at first the camera was ok but now nothing seems to help and the camera is broken...

  Can you help me??

  Thank you!

  > seen as 1 million messages like mine and not even 1 right answer on how to solve it!
  I guess you didn't read all these messages correctly

  The user Symbian wrote that her webcam works fine! He used the software/driver for the Toshiba page as well

  Since the Skype reports an unknown error too, I guess that this whole thing has noting to do with the webcam software, but with your Windows 7 installed!

  Seems a registry keys, files or all what it might be, are confused upward!
  In your case, I would try a new installation! Install Win 7 and the Toshiba drivers/software.
  Then test the webcam.

  Don t install any 3rd party software before you would test the webcam!

• Satellite P205-S6257: Chicony USB Webcam does not work after upgrade to Vista Ultimate

  I've upgraded to Vista Ultimate Home and now my Webcam does not work. When I tried to update the driver, I get a message that says that Windows has encountered a problem installing the software driver for your device...

  The installation file forthis training device is missing a necessary entry. Maybe it's because the file INF was written for Windows 95 or later. Contact your hardware vendor.

  I succumbed to find the drivers on the Chicony website. My laptop is a Satellite P205-S6257 and the Toshiba is not yet display on their support site. I don't have a disk for webcam.

  Any suggestions?

  I wish more users would use the advanced search for the Toshiba forum because many topics have already been discussed here and the solution was already planned.

• Satellite A300D-15B - Webcam does not work after upgrade to Windows 7

  My webcam does not work after upgrade to Windows 7. I installed the drivers but still having no luck

  Hey Buddy,

  What does it mean exactly when you say he won t work?
  You get an error message or only a black image? What model of laptop you have and that you use the Toshiba Windows 7 upgrade kit or a disc of Microsoft?

  At this moment I can only offers to install latest driver of the webcam of the official website of Toshiba. Make sure that this driver is released for Windows 7 and not Vista.
