    Hey,

    I cant seem to even find my webcam let alone get it working. It seems to have just disappeared from my computer. I am thinking that when the guy came to replaced my mobo he might have forgotten to plug the webcam plug back in but im not sure. Do you guys have any suggestions as how i can find/fix this?

    thanks!

    If it was working before the exchange then only sure thing to do is open up your rig. check service manual on how to open up media control panel.Webcam plug is just along this part.
