I have a DV7-1243CL running Vista SP1 64-bit. My webcam is not working. I cannot even find it in my device manager. When I first bought the computer it was a refurb in August 2009. The webcam worked fine... I have not tried to use the webcam since about October 2009 now my Ex-Husband is fighting over-seas and would like to Skype with our son. I have messed with this until I have turned blue in the face. I believe the webcam I have is HP mediasmart webcam version 2.0 At one point I had deleted the driver and now I cannot find the right one to reinstall because there are so many. I have tried a few and have gotten it close to working but even if i scan for hardware changes my system cannot find it. Please help...
If it will help you can find the specs for my machine at http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docnam
Thank you...
