Hi aquaria.

 

I see you're looking for a driver for CIF single chip. I found another discussion that relates to this very topic and have included a link to the post here.

 

If this doesn't help, please write back and let me know. I'll need to know your computer and webcam information to help you locate the driver you need.

 

I hope this helps. 🙂

Here is the best link available for your Webcam.

 

I have tested this and the driver software by Arc works flawlessly and even installs the drivers for the webcam.

 

Click "Specifications Tab" and the driver is located there.

 

This driver also works for Windows 8 ... I haven't tested it on Windows 8.1...

 

Enjoy!

The links I found here did not work for me.  But the following driver I was able to install, and my generic HP webcam finally began working.

 

I was finally able to install a CIF single chip webcam driver for my generic HP webcam. It took two days, but I was able to find a driver at the following site:
http://www.driverscape.com/download/cif-single-chip
I used driver version 1.0.4.15, dated: Release Date: 2009-04-30.
The first driver installer is for their own driver updater, which works if you purchase/register their software; which I did not do. It took a couple of minutes for my Windows XP Pro SP3, to install and detect, but after a couple of minutes, I was able to see the imaging device in Device Manager. The driver comes as a zip file, so make sure you have an unzip software program, like 7Zip, WinZip, or PK-unzip. My WOT extension in Seamonkey, shows driverscape as a good site and I malware scanned the zip file before unzipping and installing; I checked with Malwarebyte's MBAM and Avast!
I hope this helps somebody. I looked at two dozen various cif webcam drivers, sites, etc, and nothing worked; but this driver from driver scape finally worked!
