The camera is a real camera in the screen bezel pointed to you
not to itself or the screen of any laptop
how can it see backwards.
a cell phone has front and rear camera
this PC is not a Cell phone.
answer 2
NO OS told at all we can not guess OS you run.
but the drivers are wrong and or MSI apps to make the camera work like new.
OS upgrade love to break cameras, did you?

the most confusing thing is

take pictures/ videos using the internet. what does that mean? be clear on use or get wrong answers.

SOURCE: built in webcamera driver for msi u100

Hello.

Your problem is not the drivers. The msi u100 webcam is supported by the operating system without the need for installing drivers for it.

Instead, turn it on by pressing and holding the Fn key (bottom left corner) and then pressing F6.

Cheers

SOURCE: i have the msi u120 notebook and i dont know how

Press and hold the fn+f11 keys to cycle through all the wireless functions. You'll have to press repeatedly to find the combination of wireless features to turn on or off that you want. Depending on if you have wireless, 3g and bluetooth you might have to press f11 several times.

SOURCE: msi wind u120 ac connector quit working? problem @

The DC jack, where you plug the power adapter cable, might be loose or defective, & needs to be either re-soldered or replaced.
In order to do this, the laptop needs to be disassembled & the motherboard taken out. Also, the motherboard needs to be checked for defective/burned out components in the area near the DC jack. Any defective/burned out components found should be replaced, or you might need to replace the laptop's motherboard altogether.

SOURCE: Hey my webcam is not

It sounds as if the drivers were uninstalled or became corrupted in some way.
The problem is that the drivers for this webcam are not downloaded separately but are native to Windows 7.

Try this solution and post back if it worked or not. If it doesn't work, I will attempt to help you further.

1. Turn on the webcam via the FN+F6 keys.

2. Press Win+R to open the Run command.

3. Type "devmgmt.msc into the dialog box and press enter to open Device Manager.

4. Find the extra "USB Composite Device" and right click on it.

5. Select "Update Driver" and click "Search automatically for updated driver software".

Windows should find the appropriate driver and install it. If it doesn't, then post back here and I will help you further.

Good luck and thanks for using FixYa.

Camera disappeared from my sony vaio laptop vgn fe550g

You can always buy a good Laptop webcam, to use instead. That is much easier than replacing the webcam in the laptop lid.

My pc wont recognise my camers

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 Windows Photo Gallery or Picasa.

How does the msi u123 webcam work? i've tried the Fn button to start up the webcam but nothing happens.

Hello friend,
First you should press "Fn+F6" to turn on the camera, and then use the MSI software "Easy Face Manager" to display the camera locally or you can use one of the IM software like msn, skype ... to share camera with your friends.
Best Regards,
