    Hi guys!

    I did a second repasting today after I received my IC Diamond 7. Everything was succesful except that I lost my webcam and external mic capabilities.

    In device manager, i cant find then uninstalled webcam driver, all that was there is "An Unknown Device". I tried isntalling the various drivers available for the webcam but to no avail!

    I suspect that the webcam/mic cable was the one coming out from the right side of the lcd that connects to the upper right side of the motherboard, so i unplugged and replugged it back in but unfortunately it still doesnt work!

    Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Did not have this problem during my first repasting.. I am at a lost right now!

    You may have damaged the pins on the board for the connections, check them with a flashlight.
