    Webcam worked the first day I had it with a windows XP Pro SP3 load, and now, the next day it doesn't work? WTH? Soft key on left hand side used to turn it on, now nothing! Only thing i can think of is I flashed to lastest bios, but a flashback to original bios does not fix issue! This forum seems to be THE place to get answers for MSI whitebooks, so c'mon folks, give a brother a hand!? And thanks in advance!P.S. Loaded Vista 32 on it also and still no luck! Windows (either version) is not detecting the hardware!

    Just download the EC firmware file form the MSI website.
    Make sure the System Control Manager is installed, this will OSD a message webcam on/off.
