    First of all, where is the HP "User Guide"? A piece of paper on my battery said to read the HP "User Guide" for information on how to maximize battery life. I thought it was the little Reference Pamphlet that came with my laptop, but nothing in there talked about battery. Any ideas??

    Secondly, other than AIM and stuff like that, how do I access the webcam? Like how do I open a screen with a live view of the cam?

    Thanks!

    Quickplay will use the cam as one of its sources. Just launch it.

    If the user guide isn't included with the laptop...which I don't think it is, you can access it at hp.com/support by searching for your ntoebook product/model number.

    It is a little silly they make us dig for this stuff. The webcam link walks you through "testing" your webcam, which is what I assume you want to do. You can use the same instructions for takings stills or just looking at yourself.
