    Note: After the boot minimum troubleshooting step, follow step 7 in the link provided to return the computer to a Normal startup mode.

  • USB 20.0 M pixels 6 LED Webcam Web Cam does not?

    Recently I bought this webcam for my laptop, 20.0 MEGA pixel 6 LED Webcam Web Cam camera computer. In fact, I bought two one for me and one for my son and have not been able to get them to function. When I plug the usb and microphone cable, it tells that the new hardware has been found and it is to install the software of the new device. It complements and says device is ready to be used, but the camera does not work. The microphone works without problem, I tried reistalling the device a couple of times and in different ways without success. I tried unisnstalling, resettlement, adding hardware, etc.
    The camera stands out in Device Manager as a camera USB 2.0 in imaging equipment and records of cable into the USB as a Composite USB.
    Does anyone have ideas to make the camera work? I would really appreciate it!
    Running Windows Vista thanks

    Thank you Robert Charney

    Hello

    If the webcam appears in Device Manager, idon't think that you will need special software for the cable.

    You could try the cam with Live Messenger.

    If it fails, you can get an error message more information.

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/Troubleshoot-camera-connection-problems

    You probably need to reload the drivers of the device and any camera (general control software
    included with the drivers and installed at the same time).

    Login as an administrator.

    Control Panel - Device Manager - Imaging - write down of the brand and the model of camera - double
    Click on it and on the tab of the driver is version. Now, click on update drivers (who cannot do anything
    that MS is far behind the drivers of certification). The RIGHT CLICK on the camera - UNINSTALL
    -REBOOT - it will refresh the driver stack.

    Now, go to the system manufacturer's website and download the latest driver of the camera and other partners
    the camera software (if not more recent get the same).

    Download - SAVE - go to them and RIGHT CLICK - RUN AS ADMIN - reboot after each
    pilot.

    Manually look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers.
    http://pcsupport.about.com/od/driverssupport/HT/driverdlmfgr.htm

    Installation and update of drivers to 7 (updated drivers manually using the methods above
    It is preferable to ensure that the latest drivers from the manufacturer of system and device manufacturers are located)
    http://www.SevenForums.com/tutorials/43216-installing-updating-drivers-7-a.html

    Then let windows updates on however prevent loading of drivers that are often
    older than those that you have installed. If updates suggests a pilot can HIDE and watch
    manually to see if their really is a more recent version (both system and the manufacturer of the device manufacturer
    sites).
