• Webcam on pavilion dv6 not detected and does not load when Cyberlink YouCam opens

  I have a built-in webcam and my HP Pavilion dv6 will now display this message with a yellow triangle "no webcam installed".  How can I fix it?  My HP Pavilion really begins to fail.  CyberLink won't let me update software, because he claims that I don't have the full version. Doesn't have installed HP full version with my laptop?

  

  After talking three times to Support HP technicians, I called a neighbor who has much better solutions. HP had me make a recovery (which ended up being useless and superfluous) and then when they could think of no more options, they said, should I back up all my data and do a full system restore. DO NOT TAKE this action until you have tried the following (my neighbor suggested some better options, including this site), but read the next paragraph to see what I ended up doing this WORK!

  solutions

  After reading through the solutions and try a few other webcam software products, my neighbor suggested I uninstall the webcam using the Device Manager screen. Once you uninstall (say Yes if he asks you again if you want to uninstall the webcam material) then turn off your computer.  Wait a bit, turn it on, let warm up again, then look in the Device Manager, devices, imaging and your webcam should be re-discovered by your laptop. Once he reappears (mine did), analyzes material changes and run the driver updates (I don't remember what order I have them, but I have them).  After that, I reinstalled Cyberlink YouCam and POOF, everything worked fine! Skype was the video once again and everyone's happy.

  No need to do a system restore or send the laptop to HP.  I only wish that HP has been able to tell me about this fix...

• Satellite L755D - Web cam/mic are not detected by Skype

  Good evening everyone,

  I just noticed that when I install and open Skype, my built-in webcam and microphone are not detected by the application. He has worked in the past, but I've not had to use Skype for more than a year, so never noticed until now.

  I checked the Device Manager and there is no webcam or microphone listed. I tried to search for new hardware, but it found nothing.

  Specifications of systems:

  OS: Windows 8.1 Pro
  Processor: AMD A8 - 3500M
  Memory: 8 GB of RAM (2 x 4 GB Kingston sticks)
  HARD drive: 750 GB Seagate Barracuda
  The version of the BIOS: Insyde Corp. 2.10 (28/06/2012)

  If any other info is needed to help diagnose and solve this problem, then please ask and I will provide.

  Thank you very much

  Michael

  I guess the laptop not was not preinstalled with Win 8.1 but updated you the Win 7 system to Win 8.1.
  Is this correct?

  I m application because it would be interesting to know if the webcam worked correctly using Win 7.
  The driver for the webcam using Win 7 to be installed to get the webcam recognised.

  To help to win 8.1 additional webcam driver is not necessary because it s already part of the Win 8.1 System. That is why the webcam should appear in the Device Manager without installation of the webcam driver.

  However, some models of laptop supports additional webcam POWER setting in the BIOS.
  Please check this option in the BIOS.

• New Pavilion dv7, HP TrueVision HD webcam not detected

  Just bought my new Pavilion dv7, and when I run the Cam software, it tells me that my HP TrueVision HD webcam is not detected. I tried this for a few days, at a point when I was trying to play with the settings you Cam, webcam light on for aprox. 2 seconds and then died again, since then, it won't let me even in the settings of YouCam.

  Right now I am more and more convinced that it is because of my laptop being assembled outside the United States. Need a fix for it immediately.

  Hi guys,.

  I had the same problem with a HP Pavilion dv7-6e22b. I read on a short cable inside the screen.
  I found the post on the way in which the display is connected. It's an older model but I was curious to know how to remove the cover of the machine. It contains 2 screws (that I didn't have to remove to access the camera) just be causious does not break the bevel.

  http://www.insidemylaptop.com/remove-LCD-screen-inverter-Board-HP-Pavilion-dv7-notebook/

  It is an older model in the new model, the connector of the webcam is located directly under the lens of the webcam itself.
  I pressed connector you slightly. And suddenly I hear a USB all OFA linking sound. After that my device manager showed a "device-image", and the software work directly.

  I jump it will solve your problems. I say read all messages and do not find a solution to the driver or software and after seeing the connector, I think it's an effort of poor deisgn by using short cables and small connectors.

  good luck to all!

• (HP TrueVision HD) webcam is not detected in dv6-6179er.

  After the installation of Windows 7 Ultimate 64 on my dv6-6179er I expericed integrated WebCam (HP TrueVision HD) cannot be set. I tried to implement the package of drivers from the official site, but it was not useful.

  Unfortunately, I wasn't able to find a specific driver for the WebCam for dv6-6179er.

  Device Manager.

  

  Thank you!

  If your laptop is still under warranty (standard warranty is one year) then I suggest you to contact HP for warranty repair. In other words, unless you choose to open it on your own to reinsert the conector webcam, you did all you can do.

  Best regards

• Tips for when your webcam is not detected

  EDIT: If you have recently upgraded to Windows 8 and experience this problem, please read this document.
  
  Here are some tips to solve a problem of webcam not detected.  I see this question get asked a lot so here are the steps you should take to resolve the problem.
  
  To start, you make sure that the device is detected by Windows.  The following instructions are for Windows 7, but should be very similar to Windows Vista and Windows 8.
  
  Option 1: Check Device Manager to make sure that it works correctly.

  1. Right-click the Start button, type "Device Manager" and press ENTER.
  2. Once charges Device Manager click 'View' then "Show Hidden devices."
  3. Locate the section "imaging devices".
  4. Note If you see the webcam here.
  5. If the webcam is listed, click it and check that it is not 'disabled '.
  6. If the webcam is listed and disabled, go to Option 2.  If the webcam is not listed, you will spend on Option 4.

  Option 2: Allow Windows to re - install the device.

  1. All remaining in the Device Manager, right click on your webcam and select "Uninstall".
  2. If you are prompted select "remove driver and driver package".
  3. Restart your laptop and allows Windows to attempt to reinstall the webcam.
  4. If Windows detects the webcam check the operation of the webcam.
  5. If Windows does not detect the webcam and install move to Option 3.

  Option 3: Manually install the drivers for your webcam.

  1. This site allows to determine your product/model number.
  2. Visit the Page of Support HP and use this product number to visit the specific page of your product.
  3. Go to "Drivers and software" and are looking for the driver for your webcam.  NOTE: the drivers for the webcam are sometimes provided with the YouCam software.
  4. Download and install this driver.
  5. Restart the PC.
  6. Check the features.

  Option 4: Manually re - detect the hardware.

  1. Disconnect all external devices.
  2. Shut down the laptop.
  3. Remove the battery and AC power.
  4. Press and hold the power button for 10-15 seconds.
  5. Reinstall the battery and AC power.  Then turn on the laptop.
  6. Once Windows is loaded back to the Device Manager.
  7. Selection 'Action' and then 'search for material changes.
  8. If the Device Manager detects hardware let settle.
  9. If Device Manager does not detect the see material Option 5.

  Option 5: System Restore and system recovery.

  It is very well described in this document.  Note that all data not saved prior to a recovery will be lost.

  6 options: Repair or replacement.
  
  If none of these solutions worked for you, it is likely that you are experiencing a hardware failure.  It is possible to replace the webcam or reinstall a loose ribbon cable.  However, it is one of most difficult repairs on the laptop.  If you want to try this repair, you can visit your laptop support page and go to the section "manuals".  There is normally a "maintenance and Service Guide" for laptops, this will cover the disassembly of the laptop.  You can then use HP parts Surfer to locate the part for your laptop.

  If you do not want to attempt a repair yourself you can ask HP about a repair.  For customers in the United States / Canada, you can call 1-800-474-6836.  If you are not in this region, you need visit the HP Support Site to get contact information for your region.

  I hope that everyone considers this information useful!

• Satellite A300 PSAG4A: Webcam not detected in Device Manager

  I have a Toshiba Satellite A300 PSAG4A 02L00M with Vista Home Premium 64-bit.
  The webcam is not working and it is not detected in Device Manager.
  When I install the Chicony camera drivers, I get the "Webcam driver open fail. Error message.

  The fact that I can't see the Webcam in Device Manager tells me that there may be a hardware failure.
  However, I hope that this is a setting that I can fix myself.

  I had restored the laptop to factory also and I've updated the bios.
  I tried to uninstall all the USB controllers and reboot the PC.

  Is there something I can do?
  It's maybe a software problem?
  There may be a setting?

  Best way to test the operation of the equipment is to check with the factory settings installation operating system with the Toshiba recovery image. As I see that you have done this already.

  So if cam still doesn't work properly, I fear that there is a problem with the hardware.
  It cannot be matter of software because the recovery image contains the driver for the cam.

• Webcam is not detected on Presario CQ62 with Windows 7

  Hi, I'm new to the Forum so apologies in advanced if I made this topic in the wrong place.

  I have a Compaq Presario CQ62-423NR laptop PC, and I can't detect the webcam. I looked everywhere on the web and from what I have gathered, some Presario CQ62 models have no webcams and some do. Now, I'm about to think that my model does not have a webcam, but it seems as if there is a webcam at the top of the laptop unless someone can confirm that this isn't a webcam?

  in any case, I understood also that Windows 7 are compatible with the following programs for HP Laptops: YouCam and CV SmartMedia.
  Sources are here.
  http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c01970581

  Which leaves me with the options to install one of the programs above, that I did and the two programs do not detect my webcam despite this webcam has been registered there.

  I tried to test on other programs of messaging like msn, Skype and so forth and the webcam is still not detected.

  I also made sure the programs I have installed are compatible with Windows 7 64 bit.

  I also trouble trying to find a driver for the webcam to this model as well, that makes me then back to the start, I have even a webcam? -___-

  So anyone who would throw some lights as to whether or not I have a webcam for this particular model or there is something I am doing wrong?

  Thanks for all the help!

  Hello

  Sorry, but your model have only the built-in microphone. There is no webcam.
