    So i am having trouble with my webcam. I am not sure if its a hardware problem or a software problem. Everytime i start up a program like biocam or msn the cam just isnt working. I am running windows 7 upgrade. It worked fine in vista but i am not sure if its a driver issue or a hardware issue. What can it try to get it to work? Sending it back now may be difficult due to school and i need this computer for school.

    Thanks anyone for the help.

    Common problem with Win7 and Bisoncam. Lots of people had it, I'm suprised Bisoncam hasn't fixed this yet.

    Anyway, I solved the problem by using driver ver 6.64.2728.4 I found it on Clevo's site, but i wasn't meant for my laptop.

    Works fine now
