First uninstall the older device drivers and then install the latest device drivers. You can also download the latest webcam drivers from the internet and install the new device drivers.

Now go to manufacture site & in the download option, select your model number.
After selecting the laptop model number from site, click on 'Software & Drivers Downloads'.
Now you need to choose your operating system & select the given updates & follow all instructions to download it.
After complete download, install supported driver for your laptop webcam. After install driver, reboot your laptop again and check that your webcam is working properly or not.
I hope it will fix your webcam not working issue if laptop is not facing any hardware issue.

I have a problem, have emachines E627 with in-built camera. If I want to turn it on (skype, messenger), there is a notice: your webcam is not connected. Please, how I connect in-built camera in my laptop....

Try this, 1. Check your Windows Device Manager and see if all hardware is recognized and installed
properly. 2. It might be that the hardware is recognized as a camera, but the right drivers are not
installed. The yellow explanation mark will indicate a problem. 3. In that case you can try to update the drivers. Right-click the device, and in the
popup menu select Update Driver Software. Then follow the instructions on screen, but
make sure you allow Windows to search the web for updated drivers.


Sincerely, Thiyaga

My built in Gateway webcam is showing camera not found

Maybe try to restore the computer back to a time when the webcam did work and was found.

Was the computer upgraded to Windows 7 and it didn't recognize the camera after that upgrade or an update?

If all attempts to find the camera are exhausted, then maybe a new webcam that clips on will work with the operating system in question.

Laptop does not see camera. A different laptop

Consider NOT connecting your camera to your computer.


The best way to download pictures from your camera to your computer involves removing the memory card from the camera and plugging it into a card reader (either built-in to the computer or connected via USB or FireWire). This is likely to be faster than connecting the camera to the computer, and won't run down your camera's batteries.


Once the card is plugged in, it will appear to your computer as a removable drive. You can use the operating system's drag&drop facility to copy pictures from the card to the computer's hard drive, the same way you copy any other files. Or you can use any photo cataloging program such as Picasa.

Parrallels

I would suggest you look in to Apple's Bootcamp. Although you do not want to run in a dual-boot configuration, Bootcamp allows you to create a CD with all of the Mac's windows drivers.

I appologize but I am not totally sure if 1) the Bootcamp drivers contain a camera driver and 2) if the camera works at all within Parallels.

Worth a shot though.
