    Well, first off, let me just start off by saying it's not broke, it's just a setting or something that disables it, so let me explain.

    Theres a chatroom site called Stickam that I use, and its a chatroom, and you can use 3 features, typing, talking, and video, all at one time, it's pretty neat to be honest.

    Now when I turn the computer on, if I go there, it'll work, Webcam no problem nothing, comes right on, however, if I leave the webcam off for say, about 30min and come back, when I go to use the webcam it wont work, unless I reboot.

    Is there a setting that I have to disable for it to work no matter what?

    I've tried disabling and enabling and it still doesn't work.

    Thanks for any help
