Anyone have a clue on how to activate the integrated webcam on a CQ62? 

Running Windows 7 64 bit, have tried Mediasmart, but haven't figured out how to turn it on yet.

That's simple.

 

As far as I can tell, the Presario CQ62 is BOTTOM of line , and HAS NO WEB-CAM.

 

go look at staples or office max for a sale (no more then $20.00) when on sale...

 

cheers, and sorry to be the bearer of bad tidings.

I think some CQ62s DO have a webcam. If there is, it is easy to see the aperature in the dead center above the screen.

 

As far as the webcam not working, you can try installing an application like Youcam:
