    hi, after hours and hours of looking and installing drivers for my hp pavilion dv6450ec, my web cam works... it works always when i click on hp pavilon web cam or in control panel,BUT when i want to make a video call through skype it works for the first time and than when i switch video call off and than back on it shows pink picture...after that my webcam isnt working at all!!! i have to update the driver in device manager!! seems like that driver isnt stable... I downloaded it from hp site, its a hp webcam driver version 1.00A, i also reinstall bios.... i am using win xp profesional... I WANT IT TO WORK ALWAYS, please help...

    acer crystal eye web cam drivers didnt work, probably my web cam isnt from chicony manufacturer, i also used ricoh drivers that i found on hp...anyway, how do i know from whitch manufacturer it is??

    HP sucks. Why they have an option on integrated webcam when they do not have Vista drivers for that......
