hi, i think our problem is similar, i have a pavilion g6-1037tx, i have installed windows7 ultimate on it, now i cant seem to find how to activate its webcam.. i want to record videos and photos..
i have tried searching for it in the search bar but nothing.
i also tried looking for HP-Mediasmart in the start menu but nothing..
but when i use YM i can activate the webcam tru "My Webcam"


Please help, anyone on how to activate it. or links to working drivers, i dont have the CD drivers.. Thanks

i still cant find the exact driver for the web cam so i brought it back to the shop where a i bought it.. apparently they also dont have the exact driver, so what they did was install "Cyberlink Youcam"now a i can access the webcam independently.. Try searching for free downloadable "Cyberlink YouCam".

I have been trying to get this resolved for an hour now and hp says to go to start, then type in mediasmart to start the webcam but mediasmart was never installed. Now I'm trying to find out if it is a free download that they just did not install or what the deal is.

Seeking Webcam Help!

The webcam software for your notebook’s built in webcam is likely either Cyberlink YouCam or MediaSmart. The software is machine dependent, that is, most HP Notebook computers will run one or the other of the software packages for the built in webcams.

Start > search / type "youcam" or "mediasmart" >
Select "YouCam" or "MediaSmart Webcam"

Below is a Help Document on "All Things Webcam".

The file will explain how to test the webcam using the different software and what to try when you are having problems getting the webcam to work properly.

Webcam Issues in Windows 7

NOTE: There are links in the document for Vista and XP users.

==============================================================================
These documents are intended to help you become familiar with your webcam software.

For those using MediaSmart:
MediaSmart Software Webcam Feature

For YouCam Users:
YouCam Quick Setup
===============================================================================

Download New Driver for your Webcam:

If you are having real issues getting your webcam to work, or if you have recently upgraded you Operating System, you may have to reinstall your webcam software.

NOTE: If all else fails and you cannot find a driver for YOUR Operating System, note that sometimes Vista drivers will work on Windows 7; Vista came first - Windows 7 and Vista remain closely related. Just tell your website that you have Vista and see if there is a driver for you under Vista. If even that fails, ask again for assistance and we can look for a driver for you that will work.





NOTE the name and the location - the *.exe file will likely save to "Downloads “
NOTE: There is sometimes a lot of information at the computer’s website. Be sure to take an extended look at what’s available.
================================================================================

I hope this helps!
