Acer Aspire One

Hello,
builtin webcam but not listed and no "image device" listing in device manager. No switch on the unit or key combination to turn it on. I have reloaded drivers but still no recognition of the cam. Have tried most all of fixes I have seen on the net. Any thoughts out there.

Thanks, went to site and downloaded all 3 camera driver sets and tried them but still get the same result. Suyin says camera not found and the other 2 ask to connect the camera. Did a restart after each and viewed contents of the Device Manager but never see an "imaging devices" entry. Baffling problem.....

Thanks for the suggestions. Nothing helped and as I was trying to fix it for a friend and they needed it back I will close this one out. She can and will use an external webcam. The thing that made the most sense for me was -- quote"if Windows Device Manager doesn't see it (even as an unknown device) then chances are your cam is cactus and needs replacing."
