    I just got my new m15x laptop today and everything seems to be going smooth with it. the screen does not creak when I open it and the keys seems responsive with a little lag but not enough to notice unless typing ungodly fast. THe screen is still wobbly and can tel if I am typing hard and moving hte bottom it moves some. I can not seem to get the web cam to work though not picking up on the device so if anyone has anything to help me with that would be greatly appreciated

    i think the first thing you should try is to reinstall the you cam software. you can download this through my hive.
