    Ok, I just pick up an ACER ASPIRE 9410 at Staple, decide to make a fresh Windows on it, download drivers from ACER.com and everything seems perfect until I discover that the Webcam doesn't work,it said that "The Webcam is unplugged". I totally freak out and try to reinstall the driver but it doesn't work. Anyone has a solution ??
    P.s
    The webcam is built inside the laptop, how can it be unplugged ????

    It's possibly disabled by default. See if you can enable it in Hardware Devices. Is there a button to start the camera on the keyboard? Press it - maybe that will turn it on so Windows can recognize it.

    I just checked the device manager and it still doesn't see the camera, so it's maybe a driver issue but I download the driver from ACER website, how can't windows recognize it ????
