    I can't seem to find anything. I put in the cd that came with my computer and nothing about the web cam is on there.

    There is no Cyberlink software or equivalent? Also have you accessed the Device Manager and see if there were any "Image Devices" installed?

    The MSI GX630 should have came with a software called "Reallusion's CrazyTalk Cam Suite"


    -Oh, well I guess that solves it :p

    it came with some software called crazy talk and its some software on the MSI site for it and make sure you have the camera button pushed by the turbo button

    and you should be able to see it under My Computer if the webcam is turned on
