1189024 2011-03-24 09:53:00 Are you looking for a driver? It should tell you on the Acer site what the cam is Speedy Gonzales (78)
1189025 2011-03-24 09:58:00 driver should be on Acer website under downloads for your laptop.. Agent_24 (57)
1189026 2011-03-24 20:15:00 Try the logitech webcam. I'm having the same laptop with me at the moment and also have trouble getting the webcam to work. Initially it could not detect the webcam as if it doesn't exist. Accidentally I moved the webcam a little and it pops up the hardware is detected. Am now using the logitech driver.

However, I still cannot get the modem work as non of the drivers (from Acer site) works. Anyway, it doesn't really matter as we are not going to use it. Who is still using dial-up nowadays?

1189027 2011-03-24 20:17:00 I had to use it (Dialup) about 2 weeks ago all day because the DSL was out.

Telecom was nice and gave me credit for 20 hours free :)

1189028 2011-03-24 20:31:00 Well, it's good to have all the devices working but if all the drivers from the manufacturer's site don't work, I might as well leave it.

This Acer laptop is weird; I first downloaded the newer version of the VGA driver but it didn't work but the older verion works.

1189029 2011-03-24 20:50:00 Isn't that funny? I hate seeing anything in my Device Manager disabled or not installed... I just HAVE to get it working, even if it's something that doesn't matter. Agent_24 (57)
