Cannot Find Camera Error with blank screen

Asked By alice khan 0 points N/A Posted on - 11/01/2011

After performing a restore to factory settings on my computer, I cannot get my webcam to show up in the device manager even after installing all the drivers multiple times. During the first month I had the laptop, everything was fine until it disappeared suddenly. I keep getting a message "Cannot find camera" with a blank screen. My webcam doesn't even show up in the device manager. The microphone does work. This is built-in webcam for Toshiba Portege R705-P25 (Windows 7) I need help.

Cannot Find Camera Error with blank screen

If you have reinstalled all drivers and even after restarting the system, it still doesn't make the web cam work. Then the only conclusion here is that you have a hardware failure, to be more precise your web cam is broken. I suggest that you bring to an expert or repair shop that you know who can help you and let them see it. Also if the warranty is still available, have it replaced or just ask for a replacement of the web cam. But you need money so save up to afford the new web cam or the repair.
