Recently upgraded to Windows 8 , and downloaded the latest version of SKYPE, my HP webcam "is detected", the little white light , lights up next to the webcam, but all that can be seen is darkness, I checked to see if the driver is up to date, and it says it is. But still I am having this issue.

 

Any help would be much appreciated!

Thanks
