    Apparently my new sager isnt recognizing my the integrated webcam. I pulled up windows movie maker and when I selected "capture from video device" a windows error occured stating that a video device is not detected. This probem may have come up before but I did a search in these forums and couldn't find any solutions so, yea, thx

    try hitting fn key and f10 a couple of times to turn the camera on.
    then use the video view software that came with it to check it.

    K did the fn 10 thing and it found the new hardware. But are there any drivers that I can download because windows movie maker still doesn't recognize that there is a vidcam present? If your talking about the video software that is on the Nero essential I'd prefer not to use ta\hatcansidering its a bit of a memory hog.

    It's not possible for someone who is wise enough to buy a 9262 to be stupid; just a little distracted on account of the 9262's brilliance. :D

    Thank you shyster, but I still dont think that justifies how obvious the solution was lol. ANyway I have a new problem. And I don't wanna make a new thread. My mic isn't working I noticed. Is there a function key for that or what? I can't seem to record sound or anything, even with the realtek program. Thx
