    I came from a Macbook pro to my Envy 15 and I'm a little confused on what webcam program i'm suppose to use. I installed Windows with my own CD and don't have all the HP programs.

    Can anybody recommend a good program to use the webcam to take pictures and simple videos? Or direct me to the stock one.

    I'm not positive, but I think Windows Live Essentials might have some of the photo taking/movie making stuff built in. MAYBE.
    Windows Live Essentials 2011 - Download free Microsoft programs

    Edit: Yeah, the movie maker in essentials lets you capture and edit video from the webcam and even upload it to popular sharing sites.
