    I have never used the webcam on our Acer Aspire 5732Z and recently added Skype app to this laptop to communicate with grandchildren. First call with Skype resulted in our seeing our daughter and grands but they couldn't see us. I could not get the webcam to function. Any ideas?

    Thank you,

    Jim

    Do you know how to find out which camera do you have? If yes, find out and than install correct drivers for it.

    If no, than you should try this driver, or this.
