Satellite NB10 A986 webcam problem

Hello

Please help me, I have a problem of blur using the webcam with Skype, and even with the camera utility windows 8.1, videos on Skype and photos taken by webcam are blurry (sorry for my English!).
I don't think that there is a plastic sticker on webcam.
Satellite NB10-A986 PU142V
I'm on Windows 8.1 - 64.

Thank you;

It is really strange. Have you noticed from the first day of use?
Make sure that the cam is not covered by a sticker and it must be clean.

Problem is that camera is controlled by the Microsoft utility, and there is not some additional options that we had on the old version of the application from Toshiba web camera.

  • Satellite A210 - 15K: webcam problem - graphics make it fail

    Hello

    I have a toshiba A210 - 15K, but I seem to have a problem with the integrated webcam for laptops. When I turn it on I can use it without problems all the time, but sometimes after a few hours of no use when I try to use it again it gives me the following message: "chart make fail" and it runs at all.

    In order to make it work again I have to restart the computer, and even if I restart sometimes it does not start.

    Someone knows how to fix this?

    Thank you

    I noticed the same thing on my Satellite P200. After reboot, everything works again. I don't use a webcam so often and it is not so important to me, but you can try to stop (exit) web cam software and start it again.

    Maybe this will help. Can you please send the result? Right now my cam works well and I can't wait to check this option only.

  • Re: Satellite A210-1BX: webcam problem - locked by another application

    Hello

    My Webcam Chicony 2.0 does not work. -Lockey by another Application...

    So, I uninstalled the driver, but if I want to install the driver it is a mistake...

    Something with Win95 stand...

    I got the driver from the Toshiba Page.

    Can someone help me?

    Hello

    Locked by another application error message is known to me.
    This forum contains many discussions on this issue.

    First of all it is very important that Vista SP1 has been installed. This update package contains a fix that is needed to get the webcam working properly.

    Second messengers installed and loaded like MSN messenger, yahoo Messenger, Skype can lock the webcam.
    Therefore, you must remove these applications from the RUN key in the registry.

    The new installation of the webcam driver should also be made.

    I put t know why you can not reinstall the webcam software. Maybe you didn t reinstall it correctly. You must decompress the file before you start the installation. It would be also advisable to clean the registry with the CCleaner after uninstalling software.

  • Black screen on startup of the Satellite NB10-A-10V

    Hello

    I just bought a new computer toshiba laptop satellite NB10-A-10V but I hate windows 8.1 and I tried to install ubuntu 14.04.

    Now when I start my laptop replaced black screen toshiba logo and any key worked (F12, delete, escape)
    So, how can I manage this problem? Why, toshiba does not or blocked an OS other than windows 8.1?
    I called support and they told me that it is 70 euros for it. It's almost a flight!

    So I think it's a good laptop and I just want to use it with ubuntu, I don't see where is the problem.

    Otherwise I'll fix it in a store of this kind of question, and I will never buy another toshiba in my future.

    So, if you can find a solution (for free, 300 euros already for the laptop 4 days ago only.) it will be very cool

    Thank you

    Hello

    Usually after the purchase of a new product, new owner should read paper textbooks s user initially. It is described that original preinstalled recovery image (original version of Windows) is saved on the HARD drive, and each new owner, before you start to do some experiments or install anything else should create recovery media. It can be DVD or USB, depending on the model of the machine.
    You created the recovery media?

    Very important, is that Toshiba does not support Linux, but in general, you can do with your machine all you want. No you don't have to use the version preinstalled Windows. Many people use Win7 or Linux on various models of Toshiba. Due to this Toshiba has created the separate category of Linux on this forum where you can exchange information and experience with other users of the forum.

    I must also say that you are mistaken if you think that Toshiba is blocking something. That s certainly wrong. When you stop preinstalled Win8 completely, you will be able to enter the BIOS settings and change the MODE to BOOT. After doing this, you can install anything you want.

    More info on what you can read on http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB2C03F80002R01.htm

    For more questions on Linux on Toshiba laptops I recommend you to visit category Linux SOFTWARE and OPERATING SYSTEM.

    Good luck

  • Re: Satellite A300 (PSAJ4E) - Webcam driver open fail

    I had to replace the hard drive on my PSAJ4E of the A300 and when I reloaded Vista 32 and install all drivers hardware Toshiba everything went well except for a Chicony webcam.

    The side menu is there but it won't work, giving a "driver webcam open fail." "Please restart camera or computer" error.

    I updated the Bios to 4.20
    I first used the original Toshiba, the 20080428125023 webcam driver download (V1.07.175).
    I tried with 'closed the cover 3/4 '.
    I have searched and read dozens of similar problems. I've tried a few, even edit the ini setting. Nothing helps.
    I even tried drivers XP (V1.7.144.0611), 32-bit and 64-bit versions and even a driver from the gateway. Nothing seems to work for this cam.

    What now?

    I also now get "the requested section is not found in the INF file" when I try to uninstall and reinstall the driver through Device Manager.
    I have the choice of
    6.198.1.0
    6.2.208.424
    6.2.238.1217
    all give the same error...

    Hello

    Have you tried to reinstall the webcam software?
    I think it should work!

    First remove the software from the system.
    Then restart the computer, and then install the webcam software that you can download on the European driver Toshiba page.

    I think that this should contribute to solve this annoying problem of webcam.

  • Resolution of the webcam problems

    Hi all

    I finally decided me coming here on a resolution of the webcam problem: since Skype updates that followed the 6.2 version, I can't simply a resolution on my bodily proportions. In other words, I think that Skype automatically assigns to a resolution of 1280 x 720, which makes my head like a balloon look hot air (not really convenient for job interviews, I must say). And Skype seem not to care about changes in resolution, as I do in the file "config.xml". Any idea to solve this problem? I really want to be myself again.

    Thank you very much in advance!

    Hi guys, we have made some changes to fix the problem with the BisonCam, NB Pro cameras. Can you please restart your last client Skype for Windows Desktop (6.11) and see if now BisonCam Nb Pro works? Thanks in advance

  • Re: Satellite P200 (PSPB6E) - keyboard problem

    Hello

    I have a keyboard with Satellite P200, series PSPB6E problem.

    Keyboard seems to generate Press Page Down constantly, although nothing has been paid to this subject.
    It is even difficult to turn on laptop, because it produced consecutive beeps and prevents the computer from starting.

    Sometimes some keyboard characters do not work, and in the second time it works. Sometimes same PgDown works as expected.
    Œuvres for additional keyboard, but it also receives PgDown keyboard of the laptop.

    Now, I can't insert any sentence in this post, because PgDown will move the cursor down.
    Laptop is under warranty. Should I enable it?

    I note that no. LIQUID is poured on the keyboard.

    On the keyboard of the computer laptop not work keys A, B, N, LEFT SHIFT, INPUT, same brief moments where PgDown keys not dumping. Sometimes even these key works!

    Best regards

    Great news, buddy! :)

    I also have good experience with my ASP. They fixed the laptop as soon as possible and the repair took only a few days. It's also free.

    So still I m happy with the service!

  • Integrated with HP Pavilion dv9715nr notebook PC webcam problem

    Hello everyone,

    I hope someone can help point me in the direction of a fix of webcam for the problem that my laptop has developed. I spent the last few days browsing the internet looking for a solution to what seems to be a widespread problem, but with no satisfactory solution.

    The problem:

    A few days ago my integrated webcam works with Youcam and other applications of webcam with the message 'not found webcam' or 'Please turn on integrated webcam. Dutifully, I went to the device manage and felt that there was no imaging device listed.

    Related problems:

    In addition to this problem, I sometimes get an installation of an unknown USB device. This device is, I'm sure that the webcam, but try as I might I cannot point to the drivers of webcam or update its driver to something other than the best driver that is already.

    What I've tried so far:

    -Reinstall the drivers from the HP website. None of the many different types of pilot managed to bring the webcam life or showing in imaging devices.

    -Follow-up guide HP for the problems of webcam that ends up pushing me towards contacting HP help desk. Which, I imagine, will cost you a lot more money than the I have no money.

    -Uninstall all usb devices and reinstall using scan for the hardware changes. This has, once or twice, brought back the web cam and imaging device and worked for a while. However, before I can update its drivers computer freezes and turns itself off.

    -Flashed the bios. No change.

    -Downloaded the drivers from various other cam as suggested in the huge amount of bugs, there are online for this problem. Unfortunately, none of them worked.

    -Recovery plant recovery drive. The webcam is still missing in the imagery of the Device Manager section.

    Technical specifications:

    HP Pavilion dv9715nr notebook PC

    Vista 32 bit premium - service Pack2

    AMD Turion Mobile Technology TL-60 2.00 GHz Dual Processor

    1.94 GB OF RAM

    BIOS F.33, 3.09 M

    Webcam integrated into the lid of the laptop.

    Demand:

    If I understand the large amount of online discussion on what is a common problem and I hope that, among the pages and pages of bugs I looked, I missed a fix somewhere.

    If you have had and solved the problem, or if you have an idea how to sort it out, I'd love to hear from you.

    Edmonds (not Christmas)

    Hello again,

    First of all, let me thank the support forum HP for all their advice and now down to business.

    After a week of problems webcam and extensive research on the internet for a fix for the problem that I finally managed to get my webcam - however, I'm not sure how I did it.

    Below is a step by step guide.

    Now, I know that's not exactly the most empirical of bugs, however, it worked for me. From what I remember last night, the key points seem to be the following. If I insist I was very drunk and I tried almost every difficulty in the two websites above. (The bullet points below are not related)

    • Installation of a very old version of Quickplay.
    • Install the drivers from the DPinstall32.exe.
    • Get a webcam driver update Ricoh are displayed in windows update.
    • Go to Panel configuration/program and using change to the webcam repair and modification.
    • Play with the Services Windows Image acquisition.

    There was, no doubt, many other things I've done and, quite frankly, I am surprised that I did not kill my laptop I did most of them at the same time. However, the webcam is back and running so I recommend drunken stupidity and perseverance as key elements of this fix.

    Finally, somewhere in the two threads I linked will be your fix. There are a lot of different patches so keep and you can do with one of them.

    Good luck. Mines a pint of the black stuff.

  • Satellite P200-1EE PSPB6E: problem of battery and Webcam

    Hiya People,

    New on the Toshiba Forums here and stuck on a problem I have with this laptop.
    I have a Satellite P200-1EE model number: PSPB6E 0GM028EN. The election House of Uni a few days ago my refuses to laptop to turn on the laptop on and happening only when I put a Power cable in.

    I took out the battery cleaned with a can of Air and put it again and it worked but the next time I did nothing happened.
    Strange thing is that, once it is running, and I take the power wire, it works fine.

    2nd problem is the software integrated Webcam won't work for me. Sometimes, and when I restarted the laptop it works fine again.
    I tried to reinstall the driver but it gives warning that the newest is already installed on my laptop.
    Am I right in thinking that its due to the new version?

    Any help or Suggestions are appreciated and thanks in advance

    It is maybe something wrong with the battery of laptops of s?
    How old is your laptop? Guarantee is valid?

    As far as I know, the guarantee covers the battery for one year. Then maybe you should ask and ASP in your country for a control? Maybe the battery doesn't work as it should.

    > 2nd problem is the software integrated Webcam won't work for me. Sometimes, and when I restarted the laptop it works fine again. I tried to reinstall the driver but it gives warning that the newest is already installed on my laptop. Am I right in thinking that its due to the new version?

    I n t have a solution to deliver you but I assume that it s associated with the software/driver of webcam.
    You should visit the European driver Toshiba page from time to time and need to check if an update is available.

    Good luck

  • Satellite P300D: Win XP problem display & webcam driver

    Just bought the P300D Satellite with amd and active almost managed to XP operating system.
    Fortunatelly Toshiba provides enough drivers XP but the series driver and webcam driver ATI does not work.

    The ATI installer does not recognize the hardware and the driver for the webcam is not found.

    All advice that I was wrong?

    Hello

    The Toshiba driver page seems offers XP drivers for four different sets of Satellite P300D!
    Have you chosen the series laptop right from the driver download form?

    What version of operating system XP do you have installed?
    From my own experience, you need a XP with SP2.

    Don t install SP3 before you install not XP drivers on the laptop.
    Even if the driver XP Toshiba have been installed on your laptop I would test the laptop without SP3 installed due to some compatibility problems.

    Good bye
