    Go to your System Properties > Device Manager > Imaging Devices

    Double click on the HP webcam and uninstall it from there. You do not need to reinstall quickplay, thats a totally different program. It is the drivers that you need to reload

    If re-installing the drivers doesnt work. Go here and try using the Acer Crystal Eye Webcam drivers. http://forum.notebookreview.com/showthread.php?t=149463&

    Follow all the directions exactly as stated and it should work
