webcam issues

[hilking57]

I keep getting an error when trying to use my webcam. Error code: 0xA00F4244<NoCamerasAreAttached>  My webcam/camera is built in to my notebook and there is no damage to it. I have done everything possible to fix it. I can NOT find the webcam/camera on device manager. The webcam/camera settings are all turned on and still nothing.
