    Very choppy :( good lighting, good quality but low low fps. I have the drivers but not sure if I installed the correct ones.. "Integrated Webcam (no properties for it.) " Any suggesstions?

    My M15x has low FPS too. I'm just guessing it's a lower quality webcam. D:

    I have yet to see an integrated webcam of good quality. Low FPS or low picture quality, or both. After market webcams are leagues better in both performance and quality.
