• Satellite A200 - driver Open Webcam fail

  Hello

  My Satellite A200 recently dead boot disc and I had it replaced. Vista was placed in this framework through restoration SOE from Toshiba. Now the Webcam is not working, it gives the following error when starting the machine:

  "Driver Webcam Fail open. Please restart camera or computer. »

  I tried to install the latest updates of the Chicony driver but still no luck

  also, I found a lot of information through google about problems of registry entry with the installer on this issue. They recommend a rather complicated registry hack to fix it. I want to find an installer that works rather than hack the registry

  can someone advise me? Thanks in advance

  Hello

  Well, if you have already updated the driver for the webcam, I would recommend updated the BIOS too. The latest version is available for download on the Toshiba site. Before you download, compare the model number, if the update supports your laptop!

  If it doesn t work I think there seems to be a hardware malfunction, maybe the webcam cable must be renewed or something else. I think that the best option would be to contact a technician laptop for diagnosis.

• Satellite L300 - driver Open Webcam fail. Restart the computer or the camera

  Hello

  I recently bought a new Satellite L300 under Windows Vista Home Premium SP1. The Webcam worked fine for a few days and then the next time I booted up Vista, I get the following error "Webcam driver open fail, please restart camera or computer. Since the computer is new I reformatted to see if it wasn t a program is blocking something.

  Reformat 2 times and the error still ride on the installation of the Camera Assistant Software for Toshiba. I downloaded the update from Toshiba support file but still the same error. The funny thing is that the Device Manager does not detect even the webcam. There is no registration for the webcam. How will I know that it is a hardware problem? Does anyone have experience with this problem?

  The store that I bought it offered to give me a new, but do not have any in stock, so I have to wait 3 weeks.

  Thank you

  Hello

  The webcam must be listed in the Device Manager. It s not called not webcam but you should find it in the imagery of the devices-> USB video device

  The webcam should work fine. Usually after installing the webcam software, you should find the webcam software in the MSCONFIG-> startup
  If the webcam is listed here then that would mean that the software/driver webcam still load during a laptop boot procedure.

  In some cases there could be a compatibility issue between this software and a 3rd party applications like MS messenger or Skype for example.

  In your case, I recommend you to disable the webcam and other applications such as MS messenger or Skype software in MSCONFIG-> startup.
  Then clean the BONES and the registry using the CCLeaner.

  I also recommend the Vista update to the last State. All fixes and patches must be installed!

  Finally if you want to use the webcam then you could start the software manually.
  Exe file must be placed in Camera Assistant Software.

  Best regards

  If I try to use the webcam, I get the message: «Webcam driver open fail...» »

  There are several threads about this on this forum and other boards of Directors through Google, not only related to this model, well than many other Toshibas. Is there a fix of Toshiba? As the problem seems so widespread there should be.

  I use XP Pro. I've updated the BIOS and the software of the webcam without solving the problem.

  Thanks in advance.

• Satellite L300 - driver Open Webcam fail on Windows XP

  I know this is a common problem, I've been on this forum for days and found no solution. I have a satellite L300 PSLB8E, I lowered from VISTA to windows XP. I downloaded the drivers from your Web site, camera Assistant, but he says failure of webcam driver restart the computer or camera. That never solved the problem. Are there 2 different drivers, given that your site has only one, IE one for the camera and the other for the software? I have uninstalled, reinstalled, deleted the driver control panel, reinstalled, nothing works.

  Someone please end my misery by giving a clear answer to this question and many others.

  Thank you

• Satellite A300 - 1 5: webcam has stopped working - Webcam driver open fail

  Hello

  features of my laptop here: ([A300 - 1 G 5 | http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/jsp/SUPPORTSECTION/discontinuedProductPage.do?service=EU&com.broadvis ion.session.new = Yes & PRODUCT_ID = 1055589]) for any need details...

  The problem is simply, the webcam has stopped for some reason, an error messeage said "driver fail open Webcam. "Please restart camera or computer.

  I noticed that whenever I put the computer in mode "sleep" I was getting on the bar notification says "USB device not recognized..." I was not aware of what it was - he thought because of the mouse USB is connected... but I think that its related to the camera...

  the software is installed, but camera does not work and cannot allow him... I download the latest driver from the toshiba site, but still does not...

  Currently, my laptop runs Vista HP SP2 32-bit, Windows defender enabled, Windows Firewall enabled, the Windows UAC enabled, Ani-Virus of Kaspersky 2009 Enabled. I only use Windows Live Messenger (which I think to date, version: 14.0.8089.726) I used camera with, I quite using recognition of faces a long time ago and rarely use the webcam... I didn't install or update all drivers and used to have the laptop works perfectly...

  So what happened now?

  Hello

  I had a similar error message and might solve this problem by disabling startup webcam software.
  In msconfig-> Start Up tab I have disabled the Chicony webcam software.
  This prevents automatic loading.
  I don t use MSN but Skype and the Chicony webcam software is always off (unsigned) if Skype is running.

  Maybe you should try that too.

  In addition, you can try this:
  Go to Device Manager, mark the webcam (peripheral video imaging peripheral USB) and removed from the list of devices.
  Then restart the laptop and wait until the webcam is recognized again.

  Then test it.

• Satellite A300 - driver webcam and Windows7

  Hello...

  I have Toshiba Satellite A300-146, model No.: PSAJ0E, 1 GB of RAM, Intel Dual core 1.87 processor, chipset Mobile Intel (r) 965 family.

  Now I use Windows7 trial version... I can install all drivers of vista, including the driver of the webcam... I can't open the camera assistant software. If I opened, it says 'Webcam driver open fail. "Please restart camera or computer. However, I can open webcam on yahoo messenger...

  How can I open the software assistant camera...?

  Help me..

  Don't think it's really a problem?
  I doubt that this is because Windows 7 is only a trial version and it is not a version of the end.

  Toshiba is not compatible Windows 7 beta and so you should do a downgrade to Vista or XP. Then your problem should be solved.

  Good luck!

  At present, there is no Windows 7 driver for webcam but you can try the Vista driver. It work?

  Hi smarjit1,

  Have you tried different SD cards or just this one SD card? The SD card is probably the problem, what do you think?

  In addition, I would like to try an update card reader driver. The most recent driver, you can download on the official website of Toshiba:

• Problem installing XP on Satellite A300 - driver SATA is an .exe file

  Hi all

  Can someone help me? I have read the post "how to install Windows XP Home on Satellite A300? Posted the: June 26, 2008 22:40 "but, when I put the storage (XP) drivers in the Windows XP installation CD (driver is a .exe) and restart the computer, the installation CD does not recognize the SATA drive...".

  What can I do?

  Thank you

  It could be a driver compatibility problem, but also missing some other patches or missing SP2 MS could cause this BSOD.
  So please make sure that you Win XP CD contains SP2 too.
  As suggested try to start in safe mode and reinstall the drivers created for your notebook from the series.

• Satellite A300 - driver VGA not run is not enough smooth

  Hello
  Recently, I installed XP on my A300, but she seems not to run pretty smooth. The part where VGA takes place when viewing a website is really irritating, for example http://forums.pcbsd.org/<- scrolling="" down="" this="" is="" a="" lagy="" process,="" it="" shouldn't="" be,="" the="" problem="" is="" with="" vga.="" first="" i="" installed="">
  01/12/09
  Display driver
  ATI, Windows XP 8.477 World Wide
  and after that, I decided that maybe older are better by installing this:
  12/15/08
  Display driver
  ATI, Windows XP 8.552.0.0

  None of this seems to solve the problem. Any ideas?

  > scroll down it's a lagy process, should not be

  I would not say that the VGA (graphics card) driver does not work properly only because the Web page does not scroll you smoothly.

  How about use of other software, tools and programs?
  You are able to run some games?

  I think you should test it!
