    Ok, here's the deal, I installed Win7 Steve Ballmer Signature Edition and all the drivers loaded up fine except for one, the built in web cam. I have tried drivers from previous installs, it works, meaning it only installs the software. Everytime I try and access the web cam my computer tells me that there is no web cam hardware found. If someone could help me out, that would be great! TIA

    P.S. I'm using the Acer Aspire One ZG5

    Thanks for the above link.

    I had already tried what was suggested, but still no joy.

    It shows up in device manange as working and also in control panel as USB 2.0 camera, but it just will not work. I tried installing in Vista compatibilty mode (all 3 versions) to no avail :(
