    Hello wizards.

    My flatmate has just bought an Advent 4211-B with XP.

    It has a built in web cam and "Cyberlink You Cam (1)" programme installed.

    He wants to use it to Skype but the web cam won't work.
    I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling Cyberlink and downloaded the available update for it but it still won't fire the web cam to work, it just says to make sure the camera is turned on. How would I do that?

    Any ideas how I can get it up and running?

    Thanks!
