    I have 5517-5997 model and doesn't have a cam. Could you owner of the above model with cam check in device manager to see if it says USB device?
    Also, I've noticed that model with webcam integrated uses the same cable as the LCD. Other makes and model has it's own cable and ports. Is it possible to buy the LCD(video) cable and the cam to install on the non cam model?

    More info needed if anyone knows:

    Maker of crystal eye webcam?
    Webcam diagram, port pin in pin out? "will modify to work with 5517-5997"
    All integrated cam USB?
