OK I know this sounds very dumb but I have a question

Postby TC » July 15th, 2008, 3:07 pm

I have an HP laptop and have had it for about a year. It has Windows Vista and it has a webcam. I have never used the web cam or even thought about it... WELL I thought lets see how it works. Here is my question... WHERE DO I TURN IT ON? I can not find any programs that say anything about webcam?

that is the first thing I tried but it is for cameras installed with USB.

I called my cousin that has one almost like this one and his is about 3 months old and he can not figure out how to configure it either.

I am not sure if it is a Vista problem or an HP problem.

I don't need it and may never use it but it is eating me up that I can not find out how to turn it on.

mine is located under 'all programs'. it's called 'cyberlink youcam'. all i have to do is click on it and it starts the webcam.

i have an HP laptop with windows vista and we've had it for about 5 months.

Go to Quickplay and open the camera there.

Sounds like you might not have the drivers for it installed, check the HP website for drivers.
