My Hp Webcam does not wor in my HP Pavilion dv9700 cto

[rhernani]

I was searching for this driver but i couldn't find anythig to solve this problem. Are there any driver upgrade for the HP Webcam? I am runnig Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bits in my HP Pavilion dv9700 cto without any problems except the webcam?

rhernani,

Have you tried updating the driver from the device manager?  If the camera is listed in the device manager then you may only require software.

You can download the webcam software compatible with Windows 7 from the following weblink:

ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp45001-45500/SP45825.exe

Exacly, my webcam is listed in the device manager, but programs like skype or messenger can't activate it. What software I need?

rhernani,

The software vidya linked to is provided by hp and we know it should work with the webcam.  That would be a good first step to test functionality.

The link I gave is for youcam software using which you can use the webcam...

If you want to use the webcam in Messengers...please refer the following link:
