    Just recently I've had to reformat my laptop. I had to update and figure out how to update all kinds of drivers to get certain things to work. I finally came to a point though where I'm officially stumped.

    My webcam on this laptop doesn't even show up in Device Manager. I've used the CD's to install the drivers and such and restarted. Nothing is getting my webcam to work however. I've also tried the Add Legacy Hardware option in Device Manager. I'm not very computer savvy in my opinion but any help would be great.
