Unless there is a way to get the HP Chromebook CAMERA to stop freezing, (as the RESET and RESTART were insufficient to resolve frozen camera), I'm trying to use an external HP Webcam 3100.
It is frozen in both Google Meet as well as Zoom.
Chromebook does not detect. I assume because Webcam was produced in Windows time span, predating Chrome OS.
Is there anyway to get a driver to be compatible?
MUST I POWERWASH the Chromebook to correct the frozen camera?
Suggestions appreciated!!
