Satellite C855 and Win8.1 - Webcam does not work

I have problems with my webcam. using windows 8.1.

When I start the Toshiba Web Camera Application it comes up with a window of Toshiba saying ' web camera initialization failed. you check the legacy of camera and restart the application or device "."

I download different drivers from the toshiba site, but when I try and open the zip file, it says "windows cannot open this file, the zip file is not valid".

Any suggestion please?

> When I start the Toshiba Web Camera Application...
Can you please tell us which version do you have installed? I can't find this tool for your laptop available for Win8.1 model.

    Hello

    I m a bit confused; you have some problems with the graphics card or with the webcam?

    I assume you mean on external webcam connected to the USB port? Right?
    What happens if you connect the webcam to the laptop? Can win 7 recognize the device? Have you installed additional drivers for this webcam?
    Most of the time it s necessary to do so because I think that it s not Plug & Play device.

    Hey amaury Muñoz.

    Welcome to Microsoft Answers Forum.

    1. can you please tell us the model number of your computer?

    2. is there a built in webcam or what is the model of your webcam?

    Can you please give us a little more detail on what is the specific error you get when you try to use the webcam?

    Check if you have the drivers installed for your webcam.

    As you say that it is a Dell computer, you will need to go on the http://support.dell.com website to download the driver of your webcam installed.

    Click on support and drivers.

    On the next page, it asks your name and your number.

    Select the exact model of your laptop.

    This will bring up the option to select your operating system. Choose Windows Vista or Windows Vista 64-bit.

    A webcam installed usually appears under the software - multimedia, but it may be different for your model.

    You can choose to install now or download. Once it is downloaded and installed, then test again to see if your integrated webcam works.

    You can also contact Dell for support, since this is a brand new computer. Here is a link to Dell's Support page options:

  • Qosmio DX730 and Win8 - touch screen does not work

    Are there no drivers available for this model Windows 8? If not, is there another solution? If Yes, where can I find them. Any help very appreciated because they have nice and bought computer Windows 8 so they could use the touch functions.

    Thank you.

  • 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.
