    I have the the E4300 with Windows 7 -32. If I'm not mistaken, I believe there is a webcam on the lower left corner of the screen. I can't find any drivers that seem to work for me. Are there any out there for my specs?

    Cams are usually at the top of the display bezel.

    Device at lower left of the display bezel could be an ambient light sensor.

    A Win7 install would likely find/install/enable/list a cam/imaging device in Device Manager. Got one there?

    Did webcam software/CD come with your system?

    Oh okay, I didn't think it had one but I noticed it and it looks like a little camera. Plus it's next to the microphone. Thanks for the clarification!

    That is the ambient light sensor that detects your surrounding lighting conditions and automatically sets your LCD display brightness accordingly.

    Like GKDesigns said, they are usually at the top of the bezel, and Windows 7 would have already installed an adequate driver for you. Don't worry though, a lot of people have got them mixed up.
