as the subject says l have a problem with a PackardBell Easynote TJ68 laptop.. annoyingly its just gone out of warranty as l was given it last year as a birthday present by my grandparents...
long story short, the webcam seems to of stopped working.. yesterday l installed MSN messenger so l could video chat with a friend on his xbox, at that point it worked when we tested.
l booted up a few hours ago to run some updates as l boot up every so often to make sure my virus scanner is up to date and also decided to upgrade skype.. shortly after l noticed that the webcam program was showing a fuzzy screen, black in the centre and weird fuzzy colour around the edges which eventually turned white..
device manager says the driver is ok and l have removed it and readded.. but all it gives me now is just a black screen on anything that uses the webcam (MSN messenger, Skype and the webcam config software) lm currently out of ideas since most of the drivers l have seen and on the packard bell site are older than the version l have which wont let me install... anyone have any ideas because this problem is annoying the hell out of me.
