  Hi JohnnBoyyy,

  1. you receive messages or error codes?

  Given that the problem started after installing the windows updates, you can check the updates of windows for optional updates for the webcam.

  For more information, see the article:

  You can also check the HP website and try to update the latest version of the drivers for the webcam and check.

• Vista thinks my CD are white

  It is a problem I've seen many, many different places online - with just as many solutions and tried them all to nothing does not.

  My laptop has Windows Vista and whenever I put the CD in it think they are empty - but they are not, as my desktop XP works fine.

  I tried the registry fixes, and they seem to make no difference.  I tried almost everything I found, and it does not help.

  Hello

  Step 1: Please do all the same underneath if you did some before as it is often the total process
  which solves the problem.

  Try this - Panel - Device Manager - CD/DVD - double-click on the device - driver tab - click
  Update the drivers (this will probably do nothing) - then RIGHT click the drive - UNINSTALL - REBOOT
  This will refresh the default driver stack. Even if the reader does not appear to continue below.
  
  Then, work your way through these - don't forget the drive might be bad, could be a loose cable or
  slight corrosion on the contacts (usually for a laptop) and other issues.

  Another possibility is that the cables are loose. Remove ALL power, then make sure that the cables in both
  ends. Remove and replace, do not just tight. For laptops, you can often clean power and

  Some DVD players do not use the Windows default drivers so check with the manufacturer of system and

  ===============================

  Step 2: You have disc problems as the CD/DVD is actually 4 discs in 1 case (CD & DVD

  do it right.

  Did you follow the Troubleshooting Guide for the reader who still does not work? There are some registry
  entries that do not fix the resolution of problems and those who "could" be the cause.

  Check with your Maker system and a device for the two possible firmware updates and the
  correct registry entries for your car.

  Here are the keys in my opinion, are those in question - for the CD/DVD drive of course subkeys as
  There will be other subkeys in these keys. Do not forget to ask involved specific keys as well as the
  Parameters.

• Windows Vista think the C drive is full

  I'm trying to help my mother claire on the space on his computer. It is currently running Windows Vista Home Premium 64-bit, drive C is 140 GB. Yesterday, she showed that she had about 5 GB of free, this morning it had fallen less than 1.5 GB. I ran the disk cleanup tool, deleted temporary files and SR shadow copies and got it for free up to 2.47 GB.

  We went through all the programs that are installed the other day and uninstalled everything that it does not work. Under uninstall programs, I added all the space used by programs and came with 10.17 GB. When I open the C drive to view the files, all totaled, I can explain 26,44 Go, more de.4058 MB.

  Take the free space, I could clearly account, it is mysteriously full approx. 100,92 GB and I'm not. I've crossed the road and does not know where it is used.

• Toshiba vista chicony webcam "locked by another application.massage.

  Dear Sir
  Toshiba built in chicony 2usb, getting locked by anather application in yahoo massenger, if restart is okay. Once again, closing / opening of video call it shows 'locked by an other application.same that goes with the direct help of massenger.please.

  PATIT hizli, please post on the fourms to Microsoft.

  Toshiba includes a pitcher to start for the management of some of the features of the system, such as shortcut keys, and the webcam. If you have a program that the web cam is locked by another pllication this is usually the cause toshiba utilities. So for your problem, you will need to do some research to find out which utility prevents normal functioning of the web cam.

  I'll give you the steps you need to follow all you have to do is use your favorite search engine to determine if the application is the culprit.

  In your case we will try a "selective startup", a selective startup will allow us to determine which programs you want to start with the PC and that are not required when starting upwards.
   
  Please note that for your PC to operate as it should with programs that may require appropriate start-up you'll have to do some research on the name of the executable file in the following programs 'services' and the 'starting' top tabs It's that you were researching the name of the program/service will help you determine which prevents proper operation of web cam.

  Lets start:
  1. click on 'start '.
  2 type "msconfig" (without the quotes)
  3. user account control will then will prompt you for permission to continue, if yes, then click or tap on enter the button "continue". If the user account control does not prompt you for permission, then it has been disabled.
  4. once 'utility of System Configuration"is displayed, you will notice two top tabs called 'services' and 'start' for the time being let us click on the top tab of the page"services ".

  Be warned if you disable all services in this tab, the PC does not start.

  5. in 'services', the first thing we want to do is check the box titled "Hide all Microsoft Services", this will allow us to NOT make the mistake of disabling accidentally the basic elements of the operating system that are required to start and work properly.

  6. once we've hidden all Microsoft services take a look at the other services to allow a place of duty to check the box next to its title, conversely to disable. You now need to do research using your search engine preferred to determine what programs those remaining services correspond to the. Just type the name of the service in your favorite online search engine to determine what's going, if you feel that the program has no need to start then turn it off. Be aware that some programs may not work properly if they depend on to this / these services to start.

  7. Once you have narrowed your list of services, click on the top tab of the 'start-up' page, follow the same rules as the previous step to refine your list of startup items. You will notice that there is no checkbox "Hide all Microsoft Services" because usually never whatever this is disabled in this tab affect the main operating system to start successfully. However be warned that the program itself do not work properly. In any case close to the bottom of the list by searching online.

  8. Once done with all the configuration changes, click 'OK '.
  9. you will now be asked to restart the PC, the decision is yours to make or "exit without restart".
  10. once restart is completed you will be asked a dialog box indicating you run in mode "selective startup", simply place a check in the box labeled "do not show or run the system at boot configuration utility."
  11. click on 'OK '.

  To reactivate it, rerun the 'System Configuration utility' and select 'Normal Startup' in the general tab, click on 'OK' and then 'restart '.

  Please let us know if that helps the problem you are experiencing because we can then proceed to further troubleshooting.
  Kind regards

• webam poses as a scanner

  I recently lost my Cyberlink Webcam usage, I believe that this is due to an update of windows.  I downloaded all the drivers concerned, but trying to find the webcam the computer cannot.  I'm working now why!  When you look in the properties of webcams, he poses as a Xerox scanner, I have never used a Xerox scanner, or printer so am confused as to why he did it.  How can I get my webcam back to be a webcam?

  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  FF

• Suddenly unable to print: Vista, Canon MP460

  We can now print from our PC's X 3200 Acer Vista for our Canon MP460 printer/scanner.  The PC is around the age of 2 months and feel initially worked well.  However, for these last days any function related to the impression siezes up as unresponsive, leading to having to use the Task Manager to close it.  This applies not only to send a doc to print (the doc is displayed as "printing" print queue, but nothing happens), but also try to display Ports in the printer - properties.  We also have problems of suppression is not the queue documents - even if we can force by restarting the PC.  The USB connection between the PC and the printer looks OK - we are able to scan the docs who then normally save on PC, and the copy is too thin.
  So far, we tried:
  (i) uninstall/reinstall print two drivers CD supplied and the Canon Web site.  Some attempts have been frozen, others said that they were unable to completely uninstall.
  (ii) if stop/restart the spooler via a command prompt CMD.  Tried this because some discussion forums referring to known issues with Vista and printers: http://www.vistax64.com/vista-print-fax-scan/75468-printer-always-offline.html

  Don't know what else to try, any suggestions welcome!
  Thank you

  I'm stuck,
  Here are a couple more things to try.  First of all, try to plug the USB cable into another USB port.  If it is connected to a USB hub, try plugging directly on the computer.

  Go to services: click Start > Control Panel > administrative tools > Services and check to see if the service "mpservice" is running.  Make sure it is set to automatic and is started.

  If you have not already, see this download:

• Satellite P200 - 10 c: camera does not work after upgrade to Vista ultimate

  After the full vista upgrade webcam did not work. After some research, I found that I had to change the driver for usb video camera I did.

  Everything works fine now except the snap button of the camera software. Record audio and video works fine. Snapshot button does not work after you have clicked on it. Can someone help me solve this problem too.

  Hello

  you have reinstalled the software of the camera (not only the drivers) that controls the special features snapshot-thing like that?

  It should contribute to reinstall everything because vista is confusing every driver/software maximally... :)

• Satellite L500 - some problems with the internal webcam

  Hello.

  My L500-13v is a little over a year old, but from the beginning, I'm having a lot of the built in ' USB 2.0 webcam» Sometimes it works, more often, is not, sometimes, I try to open the camera app and it says "device is locked by another application" despite not using any other application in time. When I try it on Msn or other applications, I just either get a black screen or "no device connected". I also get a pop up saying "this device can operate more quickly if connected to a hi speed usb 2.0 port" so I wonder if Toshiba have connected the camera of 2.0 to a 1.0 port internally, (at the time I thought not usb 1.0 was even used.) In Device Manager, it lists six standard usb host controllers and only two controllers to improved host 2.0). I used to always get that when I take the computer off the sleep mode. However I always stop instead of sleep, but its still a very regular, even when I use the cam, it can suddenly gives me this message and then stops working. Recently, when I click to open ""Toshiba Webcam Application"I get a blue screen saying"irql not less equal"which according to me is a hardware error." and then it auto restarts.

  This laptop is preinstalled with vista, the webcam using a microsoft driver. I contacted toshiba about this problem last year, but they only told me to install the application driver 'web cam' on their site which I had already tried in safe mode and normal mode, I do not know why they give just a standard INF file. Vista will automatically pick up their driver and continues to try to reinstall the microsoft one, I finally managed to install the driver of toshiba by manually choosing Select a driver from the list, unchecking, show compatable drivers and finding Toshiba and PanGu, but after that, I still have the same problem.

  I hope that someone more knowledgeable than me can help me with this, thanks.

  Hey Buddy,

  To be honest, I would also reinstall the webcam driver but maybe you did something wrong

  So in your case I remove the current version of the webcam software and then restart your laptop. Now clean the registry using the freeware CCleaner tool which is a really nice tool to clean the system and delete the incorrect registry keys. After that, restart the computer and install the new software of the webcam of the official website of Toshiba.

  Normally after this procedure your webcam should work properly again.
  If this is not the case you should try a recovery facility, maybe something is blocking the the webcam driver who knows

• Equium A60 does not recognize the USB webcam

  I just bought a creative vista more webcam and tried to install it on my laptop Equium A60, the software is installed properly and everything but when I connected the webcam to the usb port my laptop didn't recognize it.
  I tried to uninstall and reinstall and nothing has changed. Someone has an idea of what could be bad?

  Hello

  Sometimes USB devices can be recognized correctly because of the low power from USB ports. Usually, USB devices should work with 500mA of power. It is a standard. But sometimes the USB devices need more than only of 500mA. In this case, you can use an external USB hub with external power supply.

  You can also disable the power save option in the device under USB root hub Manager.
  You will find a power management tab. Please enter in this tab and disable the option: allow the computer to turn off this device to save power.

  D this on all the USB root hubs

• Windows cannot check the updates for Vista

  Entertainment HP Pavilion Notebook - Windows Vista Home Premium 64-bit Edition.  Last month, Windows didn't install updates.  Went online - route taken to fix this - restore the system to an earlier date and no change.  Roxio Videowave no longer works correctly as well as other software problems.  Read reviews from customers online, but want to know if I need to restore my computer laptop settings before installing Windows 7?  I also use Kodak Easyshare and so-called Pinnacle 10 compatible according to what I read.  If please inform and let me know what I should do before installing.  Thank you very much for your help.

  * original title - Windows cannot verify the updates - error msg. Have Vista - thinking about installing Windows 7 to fix this and other miners some

  If Vista is having a problem with updates there is a very small chance that the upgrade to Windows 7 will not solve the problem. A shop to factory settings which will certainly solve. However if you plan to keep all data and applications a restore to factory settings or Windsows 7 "Custom / Clean ' install means that you must first backup all your data to external media files, then after cleaning install you will need to reinstall all your applications.

• Games of Vista and the cd does not

  I have a Toshiba laptop with Vista and my friend has a Dell with Vista.  She has no trouble loading the cd games but I do and don't know why. Have not been able to use one of my old CDs.  I bought the new software for Vista and sometimes they will load and sometimes not.  I have the Active X.  This particular game that is not downloading is Scrabble. Hate Vista, think to get rid of it.

  Hello Dachsiema,

  Thank you for posting.  As you said a friend was able to load the game and have the same type of problem with other drives, it seems you might have a problem with CD/DVD player.  We will test this by trying to copy all the files on the CD to a folder on your computer (create a new folder and copy all the contents of the CD to this folder).  Once you copy all the files, and then try to install the game from the folder.  If there is a problem with your CD drive, the files will not correctly copy to the folder.

  Please try this and I would like to know the results. Zack
