How do i activate my webcam?

You need to redownload the drivers for your crystal eye web cam. Go to this link: http://us.acer.com/ac/en/US/content/drivers
When you get there, select "Notebook"...then select "Aspire". Then scroll down and select Aspire 4710 Then where you see "Operating System", select your operating system (ex: XP, Vista, or Windows 7). It will then show all the drivers for your operating system...scroll down until you see the camera driver software and then download and reinstall it. Hopefully this will help...good luck.

HI

if you go to
start
my computer

the acer crystal eye webcam should be there on the right
if you click on it it should then open the camera to allow you to take pictures

or try this
start
programs

acer crystal eye webcam

You may need to install drivers for the webcam. Go to http://us.acer.com/ac/en/US/content/drivers and go down the menus to your specific laptop, then download and install the drivers.

you can still use your webcam, just not with crystal eye. try downloading another webcam viewing program, or even try using programs like skype to see if it is enabled. if it is not, try re-installing drivers for the webcam.

Hello delaney_asia,

If you don't have a crystal eye webcam shortcut on your desktop then do the following:

•Click Start (lower left-hand of screen)
•Select Run
•Copy and paste this in the Run window (include quotation marks):
"C:\Program Files\ACER Crystal Eye webcam\Acer Crystal Eye webcam.exe"
•Click ok

The Crystal Eye webcam will become activated


Have a great day,

download your drivers....try it..

maybe its not compatible.

Good luck

simpliest thing would be to go to acer's website, click on support and then drivers downloads and download the webcam drivers and softwar for your webcam..install them and try to run the crystal eye software again...sounds like the program isnt actually there but the drivers are.

download skype from skype.com
install
register
Skype->tools->settings->video
set the video device to default windows device
use
