    emAMCMP is the type of built in 1.3 megapixel cam that i have on my 9750. I've always had problems with the quality but just started using it alot.

    ANyone know ow to fix the quality? The camera makes everything desaturated and dark. WHen i got into the settings to change brightness contrast adn saturation, then they only stay for that one session adn as soon as i try to video chat or record, it goes back to dark and desaturated. i can't make it stay how i set it. I have to have a lamp right in my face to video chat successfully and then it looks like a have a white light hitting my face adn everything else is some shades of blue gray... any help?

    the camera on the D900K (Sager 9750) is mainly good with good lighting (not only on its target), dont try to use it in the dark, its aint that great.

    I have only tested it when I got it, never use it for anything else.

    No need to mess with the settings on it though, its fine at default.

    Just make sure that it is WELL-LIT if you are video-conferencing

    Yeah but well light or not, it's still desaturated and darker than it should be. Oh well. I would like to know why my settings won't save.

    I don't have the same camera as you, but the camera on my Sager NP5320 is also has less-than-satisfactory picture quality. As far as I know you can't save profiles. Another problem I have with the camera is that you can't take still pictures.
