Webcam Chicony USB 2.0 & Satellite L300D-11V

Hello

I just installed Windows 7 Professional in my laptop Toshiba Satellite L300D-11V.
Everything is reported as working in the Device Manager, but the driver of the webcam Chicony does not start.

Windows automatically installs the drivers, v.6.1.7600.16385 dated 06/21/2006, but the unit does not start with them.
Windows insists on the fact that these drivers are the most appropriate for a Chicony webcam.

Download from Toshiba site has a VISTA, not Windows 7 drivers, v.1.7.175.0123 driver, but the unit does not start with them.
Is that what the camera is simply not compatible with Windows 7 and I have to use an external USB webcam?
Or someone at - it a way around the my problem please?

What's even stranger, is that now I have installed Skype webcam works in Skype... ??
The webcam also works in Windows Live Messenger... ??
But I can't start the webcam using the installation "Camera Assistant Software..?

Kind regards
new_to_all_this

Thank you for sharing and great you could solve it ;)

  • Re: Why is it so hard to find drivers for a Satellite L300D-11V

    I recently acquired a laptop Toshiba Satellite L300D-11V to my daughter when she was upgraded to a netbook. It had Vista on it and I tried to installed Windows 7. I've never owned a notebook pc before, only a desktop pc; and they have never been through an OEM like Toshiba, but is built for me or by me. I bought Windows 7 and here, asked if he had any tips to install the drivers on my laptop Toshiba.

    Windows installs all drivers actually when it installs. Not the best that you not understand, or later, but enough so that everything works.

    I had problems but try to update of maps, graphics and imaging (webcam) devices. Windows gave a dated 2008 latest ATI driver accredited a pilot signed for the ATI Radeon X 1250. After a few searches through Toshiba, I managed to update this for 2009. But it took 2 days to research before finding what I think is the last Catalyst (and last?) ATI Radeon X 1200 series v.8.593.100.0 dated the 10.02.2010. Unless of course you know better... ??
    The webcam Chicony USB 2.0 CNF7051 is something else.

    The drivers for this camera software might work when installed by Toshiba with all the other stuff of Toshiba, and they resolutely refuse to work if you remove the software of all Toshiba with a clean install of Windows 7. The camera works you understand with other software; Messenger or Skype; but on its own... no! I managed to remove the message "the pilot was able to start" and thought that I had a crush, but I now have a message "webcam disabled or has failed.

    At least he does when you try to start the software, not on every start at the beginning. So I'll stick to this... unless of course... ??
    At times like this I realize why I buy a machine no OEM and install my own operating system and the latest drivers, not the old ones that are provided and not updated by OEM.

    In my opinion, it is not difficult to find drivers for Toshiba laptops. You just look for the right place.

    Many people with European models of research pilot on the US page and I was wondering why they can't get good portable.

    I assume you have the European model so you'll find drivers on Toshiba are supported on the page under http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com > support & downloads.

  • Need your opinion on Satellite L300D-11V

    In contemplating this laptop priced at 349 to curries. Main use is word processing, music. I player videos download. eBay and general navigation. Chose this one because of the availability and its construction in webcam and microphone.

    New to all this... are there disadvantages I ve heard Vista these slows down, but you can t get it with XP?
    The price is right? Observations of information please.
    There was so many variations on the Toshiba site, I got a little confused!

    I don't know if you can have the Satellite L300D-11V with licensed XP, but Vista with SP1 is almost as fast as Windows XP.
    The Satellite L300D with Vista has enough four power your use with word, downloads, etc.

  • Satellite L300D-11V: taken power moves a bit

    Hello

    I recently bought a new Toshiba Satellite L300D-11V of curries.
    The laptop is great apart from the power jack on the side of the laptop that may move a little when it is plugged into the laptop.

    I took the thing to the shop only to hear the Director tell me that the display model of the laptop even did the same.
    The laptop works very well and starts too thin.
    I just wanted to know if someone else L300D-11V did the same thing.

    I also wanted to know if anyone had any complaints or positive things on the laptop.

    Hello

    Unfortunately I n t have the L300 and I can't say much on the subject, but on my laptop the DC port doesn t pass. He fixed s and I think that it would be advisable to contact the ASP in your country. The technician must check to ensure that there is no hardware problem.

    I think that you should do this because you warranty is still valid and all can be fixed and replaced for free. the warranty covers this.

    Best regards and greetings mate.

  • M690G AMD chipset driver for Satellite L300D-11V under XP Pro

    Nice day

    I have a Toshiba Satellite L300D-11V comes with Vista. I downgraded it to XP Pro. I need to find a driver from chipset AMD M690G (processor is AMD Athlon X 2 dual core inside) to set right, but can't find so far that has worked.

    I think that's the reason why I can't install the network driver wireless Realtek correctly on this subject.

    Many thanks for the pointers, I'm really stuck here...

    See you soon

    Hello

    The AMD chipset driver is part of the graphics driver. This means that if you need to install the graphics driver XP for this laptop, the chipset driver is installed too.

    You can try the graphics driver XP for Satellite A300D PSAK0E.

    The series A300D PSAK0E was fitted with the same graphics chip ATI Radeon X 1200 as the Satellite L300D-11V

  • Satellite L300D-11V cannot find a WLAN

    Ok
    I have 2 x Satellite L300D-11V notebook PC series and both have the same problem: they're not detect my network wireless in my house but I've proved the wireless hub using a third PC (HP) and works perfectly.

    I ve checked the wireless switch is enabled and made key FN + F8, but it cannot always find a network. I checked the devices in the network adapters and find Realtek RTL8102E Family PCI - E Fast Ethernet NIC but it's a card LAN isn't?

    Other devices show a unknown device, but where can I find the wireless device?

    Hello

    I don't know what kind of stories you heard in stores, but the fact is that Toshiba offers laptops with wireless network inside card. These laptops come with preinstalled operating system (recovery image) and have factory settings.

    This recovery image contains the operating system, all the drivers needed (including the WLAN driver), Toshiba designed tools and utilities and some additional software. So if you buy the new laptop with OS preinstalled WLAN driver is there.

    The statement in both stores is a disinformation or there is a misunderstanding.

    Hi John
    I'm happy to hear that your problem is now solved. Just FYI: your laptop wireless network card is REALTEK RTL8187B 13CH 802.11(B/G).

  • Satellite L300D-11V - DVD player does not work

    Hello

    I am a Satellite L300D-11V and the driver on the CD does not work. I think is not the right driver and an update of Windows could have messed up.
    Anyone know where I can download the correct driver for the DVD player for Vista? Or solve this problem?

    Thank you

    Mounira.

    Hello!

    I put t understand why you need a CD/DVD driver or tell you the driver does not work.

    The CD/DVD driver for the reader is part of Windows. You don't need one and should not install a new or something else. When you have problems with the drive, it s not the driver, it s another issue.

    Now have yellow marks in the Device Manager and can use the drive? On the right, a right click on the drive and select uninstall. Restart your laptop, and the driver should be installed automatically.

    Good bye

  • Satellite L300D-11V does not start

    Hey, I have a Toshiba Satellite L300D-11V and seems them to be a problem, the battery seems to be dead and does not start also when I connect it to the mains it also does not start.

    Please could someone help to what is causing the problem?

    Thank you very much

    I doubt that it is a dysfunction of the accumulator because the startup laptop doesn t even the power adapter is plugged.
    I think you should try this workaround:
    Remove the battery from the laptop and unplug the power adapter.
    Then wait about 20-30 minutes and then reconnect the two parts.

    If the portable fuel I would recommend updating BIOS.
    If the portable feed then you will need to contact the ASP in your country!

  • Can't get webcam Chicony USB 2.0 to work on the Satellite A200

    Hi all

    I noticed that other people have posted messages asking for help on this subject. I have problems in the webcam integrated on my laptop model Satellite A200. There are no icons in what concerns this camera and I'm puzzled because the manual doesn't even mention the camera.

    There is no link in the menu all startup programs. I tried the solution suggested in the forum to add this as a USB but the phone said that there was a mistake. I'm not the person more computer in the world and I would be grateful if someone wants to be good enough to post a step by step guide on how to get this on camera. It seems to be a common problem for those of us with the A200 so it would be great if someone could help.

    Thanks in advance

    Helsfeas if you use the pre-installed Windows Vista you will be able to find the installer for your webcam chicony under the C: don't / drivers directory Toshiba which must be in your hard drive. If you run the installation program you will get an icon in your bar of tasks and on your left, follow a pop up window that can turn on your camera and put effects on it.

    If you have downgraded to WinXp please tell me if I can send you on the program, as I recorded it before the mine downgrading to XP.

    Hope I was of any help...

  • Satellite L300D-11V - after the installation of new, I have a few questions

    I had an accident important a few weeks ago, that came out the main partition on my hard drive (even if the other partition appears to be very well) and I installed Windows XP Pro on a new hard drive to install Windows 7 in the near future.

    I found some drivers which I burned on disc, and install them on my new drive hard but now I have problems with her laptop in some areas:

    -I can't the USB ports to work at all even though I thought I installed the proper drivers.
    -I can't access Internet via WiFi even if the Ethernet connection works fine and I thought I had installed the correct drivers.
    -The Touchpad works very slowly and in some cases, it takes an age to click on something like an 'X' button to close the software or anything else...

    Can someone tell me how I can solve these problems as well as to get my laptop fully operational with Windows XP Pro.

    Your Satellite L300D PSLC0E models is. I checked the Toshiba download page and your laptop is not supported for Windows XP Home edition operating system.
    Toshiba doesn't offer any driver tested for your laptop model.

    You have installed not supported OS and now you want to have all the hardware components work perfectly. How? Someone needs to find the drivers for you or what?

    It will be best for you to use Vista supported, you got as a recovery image. To install Win7 is good idea and I can imagine your cell phone will be supported and all necessary drivers will be available in the future.

    I'll do the same thing with my A300.

  • Can I play games like Counter strike on Satellite L300d-11V

    Hello

    My Satellite L300D-11-v can play games like counter strike source?
    I installed, but they are unplayable.

    Any help please?
    U can change graphics shared in the Bios?

    Hello!

    I think that a Satellite L300 is not the laptop to play new games like Counter Strike Source. The Qosmio series is perfect for play.

    You have the latest graphics driver? Do not play on the higher quality settings, set it to medium or low.

    And if you buy a computer game on the back of the packaging are the required configuration. So that you can see if it s able to play (good) on your laptop.

  • Satellite L300D-11V: can I run SSD in AHCI mode?

    Hello

    I just installed a SSD and Win7 64 bit on a laptop L300D-11V.

    Anyone know if it is possible to run in AHCI mode as I don't see the option in the BIOS?

    I saw there is a BIOS update but if it is not updated to enable the AHCI I would rather not bother...

    Hello

    I assume that it should be possible to use the SSD with AHCI mode.

    The AHCI means that the SSD or HARD disk would go with SATA performance but for that you need to install the SATA driver first.
    If SATA is set in compatible mode, then a SATA driver is not necessary to install the Windows operating system.
    Simply said;
    -n t need SATA drivers in compatibility mode
    -you need SATA drivers in AHCI mode

    The SATA drivers are part of the Intel Storage Manager and you can download this European driver of Toshiba or Intel page
